<div class="mw-parser-output"><pre> Washington D.C. February 5th 1862
</pre>
<p>Dear Ward,
</p>
<pre> I have solved the problem
</pre>
<p>in regard to your matter. MR Dunham Superinten-
dent of that department came along the next
day toward evening and seeing them in the
Car, went at once to Gen. Meigs and Gen
M. ordered them taken off and they are
now, very near the place where you put them
with your name and direction marked
on them, I was told that the box would have
been taken, but Mr. D, was not certain that it
contained matter. So we may both set our
heart, at rest now. I have spent a good deal
of time hovering around the Freight Depot
and still not think of going to those men who
[guided ] us in the first place, or I might
have known long ago. You are fortunate in
having obtained the box. Whether you can
get any more or not now I cannot tell. Prof
</p>

you are well and prospered in your

how you are and what the future has
to say to you;

<pre> I am hard at work as usual
</pre>

Henry Augustus Ward Papers
A.W23
From 1862 to 1906, Ward’s Natural Science Establishment supplied specimens to natural science museums around the world. The goal of this project is to enable scientists, historians, and archivists to recreate Ward’s inventory by linking 19th century materials and documents at their institutions to the original catalogues, bulletins, and manuscripts.
Original line breaks, punctuation, abbreviations and spelling have been preserved
in the transcriptions and underlining and strikethroughs have been encoded.
Marginalia associated with a photograph or other ephemera has been transcribed
and associated with that object. Other marginalia is tagged "caption" at the
beginning of the relevant date's entry. Words or phrases deemed indecipherable
have been noted as "illegible." Nontextual original content, e.g. drawings and
diagrams, have been noted as such. Images of the original diary pages are
provided to show the creator’s original page layout and placement of
additions.
