BUREAU OF ADMINISTRATION _______ AGRICULTURE 237 INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION 1876 United States Centennial Commission Philadelphia Novr 9th 1876 [[upper left corner]] I suggest that Mr Brown better go + see you about this to fully entertain the matter L [[/upper left corner]] Proffr. Spencer J. Baird Sir To remove exhibits from a foreign section of any of the Exhibition Buildings it is necessary to secure a permit from the Commissioner and then the Signature of the Chief of Bureau. Mr Westergard of the Netherlands Commissioner will issue to you a permit and I will with pleasure sign it. You will be put to the trouble of securing a fresh permit each time as they must be taken up at the doorway by the guard. I enclose you a half dozen permits which you can present to Mr Westergard and which I will have properly endorsed. Yours respectfully Burnet Landreth Chief of Bureau
