CLARK STUDIOS 1100-«2 ^>UTHERN BOULEVARD IX. NKW YORK CITY March 17th, 1915. Dr. C. Hart Merriam, 1919 Sixteenth Street, Washington, D. C. iiear Dr. Merriams A while ago I sent you some bear skulls from Lincoln Ellsworth and Ilr. Chas . King; in this lot there was one exceptionally large Alaskan Brown Sear. I am wondering if I could borrow this from you in order to make some casts of the teeth; I am working up some artificial teeth for the cats and bears which will be perfect reproductions and will be indestructible. After I get my moulds worked up I will then be able to turn over to you many interesting bear skulls which at the present time I am obliged to destroy in order to get the teeth. I will not injure this skull in any way, and would gi*eatly appreciate it if you will see fit to loan it to me for this purpose • Very truly yours. jic/n.
