nwh Fort Wrangel Oct 19. 81 Mr. H. A. Ward
Your favor of 23rd ?
was rec'd per mail. The price paid here are so exorbitant that it would cost over $125.00 to obtain what you require, and could not be obtained this season.
If you will send me the address of your
agent in San Francisco I will forward the skeleton to him - as by clearing it the freight eastward would be a great deal less. If I can obtain any natural specimens worthy of being forwarded I will send them. Yours W. H. Woodcock
