at least for the instruction of present and future generations, and I desire to renew to the Trustees, President of your University, and Faculty, the assurances previously given in persons of my wish to generously aid you in any way in my power, and to establish relations of confidence, with a view to the exchange of duplicate material which we may severally secure.



In making the foregoing offer, you understand that I am speaking as the responsible representative of the generous founder of the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh. He is at present abroad in Scotland, but I feel that in attempting to protect and defend the interests of the University of Wyoming, I am only doing what his own kind heart would suggest.



I have the honor to be, with assurances of the highest personal esteem abd regard, Yours very respectfully,

Director of the Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh, Pa.
