Transcribe Agassiz, L. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1873-05-30)

ybg Museum of Comparative Zoology, CAMBRIDGE, MASS. May 30th 1873 My Dear Sir,

    Mr Allen has sent you two lists of desiderata

of your Skeleton for our Museum, As I suppose it

will take you some time to prepare the whole, I

willl assume that it may carry me to our next fiscal year (for the Museum namely, which is 8bes neeA) I therefore without waiting for the decision of the Legislature concerning the additional grant asked for this year, request you at once to proceed with the preparation of the </u larger > order. Let me know what a complete Collection of your casts Very truly yours would amount to L Agassiz taking </u only those that were made from originals, >
