I think I shall h ve Dr, Gorrell -ho has been 
doing research work for me durinfgtbe 1--st academic year, spend the 
next six months a-Jdag . catalogue of the Guatemalan orchids in pre¬ 
paration for as orchid flat*.-, of that country. Th t will mean doing 
the purely clerical w«rk$ writing up descriptions and bibliography 
and doing the odd jobs th t -all ease ay way to a find.lied job. This 
being the case I hope you will send on soon sons samples of the 
method of treatment you intend to adopt. 
I want to obt da copy of Bert told hsufer's 
1, Si»o~Iysiiica, !i Field duaeua ntropologic-i Series, Pub, 901, vol. .’5, 
do. 3, (1319). Do you suppose you eon dig one up for ae end send it 
to say North Easton address with the bill. I need a copy for hose con¬ 
sumption . 
Je have reached Malawi© la the liexican flora, so 
that job is progressing. The Ostlund collection bus .roved to be a 
magnificent -.auisition .ad is supplying species of which heretofore only 
the type specimen was known. 
.-ith the best of good wishes.
