Dear Sir.

We had the pleasure of sending you a few days ago two roughly prepared skeletons, male + female, of the porpoise of the Chesapeake Bay, of a species not previously in our [popeprin?]. We have excellent costs of the animals, + the skeletons will enable us to make a complete presentation.

Please prepare these specimens in your usual excellent style, + [other?].

Yours truly.

Spencer Baird
