lay dear Sir: 
v 
Captain McCoy has just written ne from the Yosemete Valley telling 
of your roaming through Mindanao and Mindoro as a naturalist. I am malting 
a map of the Philippine Islands and am sending you a statement about it. I will 
also send you a blue print of Mindanao and Mindoro upon which I would like to 
have you make corrections and additions as accurately as you can. I’.ll 
promise you a complimentary copy of the map when it is done. If you will let 
me know at once whether you will be available for this, I will forward the 
print very promptly. 
I would like to get anything you do within a week as I leave for 
Manila within two weeks and want all corrections made on the map before I go. 
It is now being engraved on stone. 
Yours very truly, 
CASP-ahH |. H0DGS0II
