Siguatepeque, 
Honduras. 
April 17,1933. 
My dear Mr.Ames: 
To-day I am sending you two packages by parcel post. 
One contains Orchid Specimens Nos.390 to 3981nc. and Woody plant 
specimens Nos.P-856 to P-590. Package No. 2 contains Orchid flowers 
in liquid. Hope that they reach you in good shape. 
I am very anxious to hear from you in- reply to my 
letters of March 4th. and April First. I have heard nothing from 
you since I received your letter of March 18th. I shall not be able 
to continue the work much longer unless I receive a check from you for 
expences. Just as soon as I have some word from you-that is receive 
a check- I shall go to new territory to collect. I spent all of two 
weeks at Lake Yojoa and found nothing. I shall collect here at 
Siguatepeque as long as it is possible to find anything and then if 
I have heard nothing from you I shall go to Minas de Oro, where I have 
a friend,with whom I can live, and collect in that neighborhood. 
I have funds enough to last about a week longer and then 
*?????????? 
Hoping to hear from you in the very near future, I am, 
Yours truly,
