USNM Curators Annual Report - Department of Reptiles, Annual Report 1882

Apart from the very challenging handwriting of what might be a rushed letter to the Assistant Director of the United States National Museum, H. C. Yarrow's report of the work of the Department of Reptiles for 1882 is quite legible and organized in comparison to some of the other departments' reports. Please join other volunteers in this transcription effort. The latter pages might help to get a sense of Yarrow's unique penmanship.
