Dear Osgood: Thanks for yoior proiflptneBS in ajiswering vsj about the skull supposed to go with the type skin of HcSUfiL phaeonyx^ I have talked with Hoi lister about the m otter« and his recollection tallies with yours. It is safe to say therefore that there is na positive evidence that this skull came from the Co(aet Greek country. lOt I am not good at reading other people^ s minds at a distance of a thousand miles. In fact, mj efforts in that directicoEi have not yet spanned more than 420 miles. I must confess therefore that I have not so much as an inkling of your plans for the coming siaraar, but shall be very glad to hear anything that you may tell me as to the same. Since writii^ you I have learned that Svermann has been appointed director of the Ummevm of the California Academy for a period of (me year* Olad you are to publish your Peruvian paper in the near future even if you are not able to make it so full as would be desirable. Â¥ith best wishes. As ever yours, ^. March 18, 1914. hmt â 1 ti i V' V. W. Yood« Isq. 951 Lancaster Avenue, -^ . Syracuse, My dear Sir: Tour letter of the 12th instant came several days ag», and the skull you were good enot^ to send has now arrived and iajof much interest, beii^g a fine old f aosale of the Meodcan Grizzly. I greatly ap^^eclate your coortea
