L3y dear Dr. Holmes: 
Receipt is acteiowledged of your interesting 
letter of April 29th, for which 1 am duly appreciative. It 
will ha of great value to our purpose to have your strong 
hacking for the procurement of these Indian Quarries and I am 
sending a copy of your letter to each member of the Commission 
for their information* 
I am in entire sympathy with your proposition to 
install a bronze monument of an Indian on the site of these 
mounds as a permanent record of the early occupation of thifcu 
land and if it should be acquired i will present this matter to 
Congress immediately for its consideration. 
Yours very cordially.
