Dear Mr. Schweinfurth: 
At last we have got ready for y0u a set 
of the orchid type prints. After receiving your list of 
some of the numbers, the rest was easy. 
My inability to find the orchid photographs was then ex¬ 
plained, even if not altogether justified. We do not have 
Macbride's notebook for the higher numbers. However, he sent us 
labels, prepared in Berlin, for the prints, of which he had our 
set made there. I supposed we had labels for all the prints, 
but it seems that he did not send a full set of labels* stop¬ 
ping somewhere around 18,000. I did not look at the prints, but 
did hunt for the orchids through our set of labels. 
I wrote to Macbride about the matter, and received a letter 
from him the other day, in which he doesn't mention the negatives 
here, but states that he will have a set of prints made and sent 
you. I don't know now whether he has further orchid photographs 
or not. Knowing him as I do, he may well be thinking of those 
now being sent you. 
Very truly yours, f ■*
