nwh Rochester N. Y. Jany 9th 83 My dear Prof

       Your favor of the 

6th inst duly at hand.

       You relieved my mind

just in time, for I intended that evening to "open fire" upon you. When Mr Nichols sent the telegram I could not see how it was possible to get five duck in the sized case given. I have since decided that is absolutely impossible to do so.

       The groups as they ordered 

them are as follows - Group F Group E Harlequin Duck Baldpate Stellers Duck Black Duck Spectecled Eider Wooded Merganser King Eider Wood Duck
