SaiyH, April 11, 1902. 
Mr. Merritt L Fernald, 
Gray Herbarium of Harvard University, 
Botanic Garden, Cambridge, Mass. 
Dear Sir: — 
Your letter of the 10th instant received, also manuscript. 
We are sending you under separate cover such of the 
cuts as we have, and will send you the others as soon as they are 
returned. I notice, hov7ever, that you request particular cuts 
that are grouped occupying a full page in our booh, and as these 
combined scenes are in one cut we shall be unable to give you. exact¬ 
ly what you require, as we do not wish to cut them up. 
Mr. Cram handed me your letter of March 15th, also 
bill for advertising last season; and it seems to me that this is 
rather expensive advertising, as according to your figures only 
twelve passengers were secured, and the advertisement amounted to 
much more than we would receive on this number. X infer from your 
correspondence that the article which you have submitted is to 
occupy 4 pages, and if similar articles are to continue during the 
season, as per your arrangements with our President, it is evident 
that it would cost us twice as much as last year, which in my opinion 
we cannot afford. The manuscript submitted seems to be satisfactory 
in every way, bu^ I would suggest that a mention cf our new Guide 
Booh for 1902, "In Pine Tree Jungles" be made and that it will be 
sent upon receipt of 10 cents in stamps to pay postage.
