dc.description.transcriptionBaylor University O. C. Charlton, Department of Natural Science. Waco, Texas, May 23 1901 Mr. George P. Merrill U. S. National Museum Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: Yours of recent date proposing that Mr. Schuchert select fossils from his department in return for yours part of the meteorite came promptly to hand as did the two pieces of the meteorite. With the latter I wish to thank you for the satisfactory result of your cutting. As to the possibles, I shall be please to have the collection made up and shipped at your earlier convenience, I shall have the selection entirely to Mr. Schuchert, requesting only that rather pull details as to locality we be stated. Please extend to him my assurance of strong regard and that I recall often and with pleasure his companionship in Wyoming it seems that the “U. P. Fossil Field Expedition” was to say the least a stimulus to considerable independent work in Wyoming since that picturesque train up Geologists and scientists of various degrees enlivened its solitude. Permit me to say to both of you that if occasion permits I shall be glad at any time to be of service to you. Sincerely O. C. Charlton
