much available. In all we should have not much over a ton of 
freight. I would want to go in about the middle of February 
and suppose that the boat could make the trip over, unload 
and return to Balboa the same day. I would be ready to come 
out about April 3, with a load of somewhat less amount than 
I did have going in. 
* From Chiman I expect to go inland by canoe for a 
short distance and then over foot trail to make a base camp 
in the foothills of the low mountains. I would shift this camp 
at lease once during the course of the work. I have had ex¬ 
cellent information on the area from Colonel Frank A. Petit 
of the Inter-American Geodetic Survey. 
I hope that you and Mrs. Hale are both well and that 
you find it agreeable to be stationed once more at Langley Field. 
With my kindest regards and best wishes, I am 
Sincerely yours. 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
