paper and have had to send to the Eastman people and get it direct from 
the factory. I hope I shall have a considerable portion of than printed 
before the October meeting of the Club. I enclose a franked envelope 
for return of the sub-vouchers. 
Several times since my return 1 have heard reports of a disease that 
was "killing" the oaks on Cape Cod, So far as I can learn it seems to be 
twigs and small limbs that are going. If you happen to run across this 
when you are down on the Cape I would be very glad if you had an oppor¬ 
tunity of sending me specimens of the trouble, including specimens both 
sides of the diseased area, {that is, both diseased and the adjoining 
fairly healthy portions). I enclose a couple of adhesive franked tags 
which can be used for some of the specimens, provided you have an oppor¬ 
tunity and the time to collect and wrap them, but I hope you will not 
go to any unusual trouble regarding the matter. According to the Post 
Office regulations a package in excess of four pounds can not go under 
frank. 
Sincerely, with best regards.
