^[[182]] [[preprinted]] Board on behalf of U.S. Executive Departments of International Exhibition, 1876- Act of Congress of March 3, 1875. [[line]] JOHN EATON Representative of the Department of the Interior. INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, 1876 Department of the Interior Exhibit ^[[Washtn, Dec.5]] 187^[[6]] [[/preprinted]] ^[[y?]] My Dear Sir: I do not wish to trouble you too much but I shall be obliged if you can conveniently have the articles in Dr. Hayden's Survey come forward with some of yours. I understand from them that you are ready to do it. I enclose the list. Of course I desire to conform the shipments of the Dept to the agreement with Capt. Rodgers that they should be in full car loads; and if there should not be enough in this Survey, I must leave this part of it to you. Very truly yours [[/signed]] John Eaton [[/signed]] Prof Spencer F. Baird Cor. Preston & Hutton Sts. West Phila. Pa.
