Cambridge, Apr. 14, 1881
Dear Mr. Lucas
The four boxes
of mounted specimens arrived today
in perfect order. Have approved
[the?] bill and turned it in for settlement.
I shall wish, however, to return
two specimens from this sending:
(1) <u>Aguila naevia</u>, which is a
duplicate of one sent nearly two
years ago, except that it is not
quite so good a specimen.
(2) <u>Pratincola ferrea</u> - a bad specimen.
Very [illegible] yours
J. A. Allen
