actual facts concerning the proposed expedition in the event that any of those
who heard me speak in Waterbury may feel inclined to take a tangible interest in
the work. I am also sending you a little souvenir of the Far North in the shape
of a blue fox skin, which I will ask you to accept with my compliments...."
