Boar Sr*. Lancasters 
I have been thin.ld.ng soiae ifoat of going down to 
Costa, lies soce tine after* the first of September this 
year to see soiae of the orchids in the field. X have 
never been in the tropics and X have worked only with 
the orchids of the.eastern tropics and know very little 
about the western ones. 
:,#■'. V.S®’

' 
Professor Arcs has suggested to w that I write to 
yon to find out when She best time to corse down there 
would be in order to see the greatest masher of orchids 5 - 
if X could find a place to live fairly close to good 
collecting localities| If It would be necessary or wise, 
not having been in the tropics, to get a guide 5 or anything 
else that you smy know about that X do not bat should# 
If X find that it is possible to cons to Costa Rica 
X think that X should probably be able to spend a month 
or six weeks down there*. 
Sincerely yours.
