5 I got a tremendous consolation for not getting to Puerto Madryn. I got more stuff from there than I could have collected myself in a years time, and they let me have my pick of there crustacea. Its one of those museums it does your heart good to visit, I filled up the two boxes I was lugging to Puerto Madryn when I got sick, to the hilt with crustacea, and a few echinoderms in exchange, I could have brought more mulluscs & Bryozoa and what not had I had the room & the time. You see I had to list and pack the stuff myself, & with this rush for getting back for these -- -- -- birds I didn't have time enough. Did I tell you the La Plata Museum too has promised to be generous with me. [[strikethrough]] [[?]] [[/strikethrough]] But oh! how crabby I feel the good doesn't suit.

- After "stuff," the word "from" is inserted.
-For "there" before crustacea, the transcriber did not make an error. The original author (Waldo) made the grammatical error in the original document.
- Transcriber made minor error with the word "mollusks." The transcriber accidentally used "u" instead of "o" (mussuscs). However, the original text also has incorrect spelling, since the "k" is missing.
