<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>[page 1]
Washington, Feb 6th 1883
Dear Professor:
</p>
<pre> I enclose a copy of
</pre>
<p>my late letter to Studer. Please
let the boys know its contents
to preserve it with <u> special care </u>. as
I have no other copy. No answer
thus far. I have not fired all
my ammunition yet by any
means, and if Sruder is not
satisfied with this I am prepared
to prove him destitute of common
honesty and a forger.
</p>
<pre> I wrote last Thursday to
</pre>
<p>Carnegie. No answer yet, which
means he is not in New York.
You may rest assured I will
go to him the moment I learn
his whereabouts if he is in
reaching distance. Otherwise I
will make a new move <u> promply </u>.
Yours hastily,
W. T. Hornaday.

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.

Feb. 6. <em>188</em>
Dear Prof Ward,
</p>
<pre> Will send tomorrow
</pre>
<p>the specimen of ? mentioned
in my last.
</p>
<pre> In moving some large skeletons
</pre>
<p>today I noticed that in some cases
you have mounted recently some
quite large ones with a simple forked
rod for support instead of using
two as formerly. I write to say that
i consider the old method (with
two rods) preferable, as it makes
the <s>pice</s> piece firmer in case it
has to be moved after it is set
up.
Very truly yours
J. A. Allen
</p>
