Transcribe Bickmore, Albert S. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1883-07-05)

ybg AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK, (77th St. & 8th Ave.) NEW YORK, July 5 1883, Dear Professor Ward

    I was very much

pained to know of your financial embossment and the fear you entertain of the stopping, at least temporarily, of your establish- ment which you have devoted so much time, thought and energy to create and which is so much needed for the build- ing up of collections in the Museums and at the Colleges of our land.
