My dear Dr. Holland,

We arrived home from our side-trip to White River on the 26th. We hauled the collection of Uinta Mammals to Bonanza on the Uinta Railway and deposited them safely in a good stone building there. The boxes are marked, addressed, etc. and can be shipped at any time on a few days notice.

I estimate that the total weight of the seven large boxes is about 8000 lbs. It required 500 ft of lumber to do the boxing.The skeletons were purposely left in large blocks as they naturally parted in the quarry. This will give the firmness necessary for working out the bones in the harder concretionary portions and the bones will require less mending and "patchwork".Uinta fossils are usually more or less disappointing
