Description
Letter from Oscar Monnig to Glen Harris Orr (the finder of the Tishomingo meteorite) in care of R. C. Orr (Glen's father) letting him know that he has gotten the specimen of Tishomingo cut, polished, and etched by a professional, and that the iron appears to generally be an octahedrite though one with very fine detailing. Says that he will bring the cut pieces with him when he next comes to town, and reiterates his interest in acquiring the stones for his own collection, and their general protection.
