Providence, II I, 
Dear C dan.be r la in; - 
Your letter of the 29th carae this morning and as I took 
a little time after hours today I as mailing you under separate cofer the 
sectload of the Snealypta leaves, I have shipped the sections in three small 
vials with a little !0yi glucerincj or it was 1.0'fi when made up some time ago— 
it may act be just that new, 
I had no means of knowing just what sections I was cutting as I placed 
*$«*» as near pausac vertical: as I cou/ld with the forceps and then cut through 
the whole mass: consequently you v.ill get some basal sections, some apical 
and some oblique, ©to. This is the method by which we handle all our work 
on small things. You willprebably find the beet way to got the sections 
out of the vials will be to use a rubber bulb pipette, pushing it down hear 
the bottom of fcho vial with the rubber bulb partially compressed, then release 
the bulb carefully and the specimens will suck up into the tube. They can 
then easily be expelled on tc a -knew slid?. I hope they will prove to be 
satisfactory. I have not examined them. 
1 inclose the two sketches, 1 hardly think they will reproduce very '• \ 
satisfactorily by the photo engraving method as that process usually requires 
jet black lines. ‘There is no reason however why it should not reproduce 
all right by a - me other method, o.g,, lithograph or photogravure or even 
by the half-tone process. much will depend upon who does it and their 
facilities for doing that kind of work. 
Sincerely, 
I
