Prof Chas. E. Bessey
Lincoln Neb

Dear Sir:

The two large snow cases
I let you have, never made for
my wood specimens when on
exposition at New Orleans. I
want to sell my collection
to the state for your use.
It strikes me the plan will
be to place the specimens
on exposition in three cases
in your rooms, where a Committee
from the Legislature
can see and examine them.
What think you! I would
send the collection to you,
and come to Lincoln and
assist in arranging them.
May I hear from you?

Truly
Robt. W. Furnas
