Dear Prof. Ward,

       Enclosed is a list of my material to

be packed for S. A. T. exhibit. It may be well to have this packed at once to avoid crowding at the last. Wou;d prefer to have Gueret pack it, after him William but </u on no account > trust it to any new man or to one who would slight it. Five the memorandum to whoever does the packing as if that is followed all will be well. You can credit it should you be willing on S. A. specimens or if you prefer not, on some of the writing that is to be done sooner or later. Or if you should think best I will pay cash. From New York my exhibit will be shipped on here so that you will not again be troubled with it. Very truly yours Fred. A. Lucas. P. S. Will you kindly have some one -William or Webster look </u at once > in the small box containing S.A. T. things, or in a package, - both with my exhibit - for the numbers used at the Boston show. If found kindly mail them to me </u at once >, if not found please drop me a card to that effect.
