of. They are in 7 ptetty large bottles - of course in spirits - and I should think there was something like 50 or 60 specimens of Land Snakes, ? ditto Marine ditto, Lizards etc etc all in beautiful perfect?. Altogether they are as nice a lot I have had the pleasure of inspecting and what is unusual with South Sea specimens they are all thoroughly good examples and in no way injured. The price wanted is L7=0=0. which I think very low indeed. I mention the matter to you as I think they are a a good line and what you would like to have. But dont think for a moment I have any other interest. If you will take them kindly write at once as it is possible.
