ask for about $150? or would
$125 do? I am [?] obliged
to borrow of the Zological Dept. and
I find the "Dissecting microscope"
answers very well to start out
with for the [?]. Three cost
$22 each I think Prof Osborne
told me. — But you know
what I want and when it is
best to buy.

You may believe that as
long as I write you letters
I shall ask you questions. When
I come to look over my collections
this fall it may be that I will
find something that may [?]
interest you I will send it
(or them) on a venture. What
a fair lot of Fungi you must
have!

I think of going to Ann Arbor
and expect to see and hear you.

Yours sincerely
