July 27,1932. 
My dear Professor Ames: 
The letter containing the CheEk has been received 
and I am leaving in the morning for Lake Yojoa. I expect to begin collect¬ 
ing there Saturday. While working the Lake country I shall establish 
headquarters at Siguatepeque. 
I wrote the Manager of the United Fruit Company 
in regards to the material you left in Tela but so far have had no 
answer to my letter. While in Tegucigalpa July 25th. I called on the 
Manager of the Tegucigalpa Office and he promised that he would write 
to Tela and ask them regarding the material. 
I am just about out of containers for shipping 
specimens preserved in alcohol and have not been able to buy others 
here so think you had better send me a few of the one pint size. 
I shall be able to make another shipment of 
specimens about Aug. Tenth. Please address me at Siguatepeque. There 
are now three shipments-the last three I made- of which I have heard 
nothing from you consernin^bheir arrival at the Arbotetum. 
Sincerely yours,
