Transcribe Parker, Thomas Jeffery. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1881-05-31)

Dunedin May 31. 81

Dear Sir,

On the other bids I give a list of desiderata, which I fancy will be quite long enough Twenty seven pounds (£27) was the total sum.

Many thanks for your information about the Notornis —

I should have sent the list last week but was too busy. If you will kindly ask your representative in Rochester to send the things as soon as possible I shall be greatly obliged.

Yours truly

T. Jeffery Parker

To Prof Henry A Ward

[Note spelling of Jeffery - it is unusual, and not as you have it in your cataloguing]
