Prof. Spencer F Baird
Washington D.C.

Dear Sir, Yours of 10th inst received Several Exhibitors have been moved to afford the Space of 1560 feet offered to you by my letter of April 7th.

I sincerely hope you can either make a display yourself, or induce others to do it, as only after considerable trouble with parties who held positions of the space assigned you were we able to secure you the block placed at your disposal and which no one can more acceptably fill.

Please communicate with me by return mail, and oblige.

Yours Respectfully
