Some very fetid fungi
preserved in alcohol, have
been placed in the museum [sic.]
during my absernce, – large
hollow cylinders. I brought
home with me, in glycerin, a
fetid fungus of brilliant

East, of marine invertebrates, and
of [?] rocks (Eastern Mass.). Does
Prof, Beal wish to exchange anything?

Yours truly,
H. W. [Packard?]
