Dear Mr. Underwood} 
I have been pleased indeed to have yours of August 
27 which reached me yesterday and shall look forward to meet¬ 
ing you in San Jos4. 
I note what you say about No. 12 and dust shot and 
will arrange to bring a supply iA n^r outfit. This shot is 
sold here now in 25 pound bags. I believe that we have in 
stock 18 or 20 pounds of each. I am not quitei certain whether 
you wish a large quantity brought and will appreciate it if you 
will advise me. 
I have done some work in Guatemala but have never 
visited Costa Rica before so that naturally I looking fox*ward 
with keen interest to a brief glimpse of a country new to me. 
I hope indeed that Don Juvenal Valerio can be with 
me for part of the time at least as I met him here last spring and 
developed a very sincere liking for him. 
Please let me know idiat quantity of shot you wish 
me to bring down aside from what I expect to use in my own work. 
Sincerely yours. 
A. Wetmore, 
Assistant Secretary.
