H. Pepper, American Museum of Natural History 77th St. & Col. Ave. My dear Pepper:- Had almost forgotten to write you in regard to the extra pictures which I spoke to you about, in the store. Would you kindly let me have one figure of a Navajo to go with the negatives you selected in Washington, one the old warrior with the lance and shield, the other showing full figure Navajo with the bow. Would also like to have a negative which could be enlarged to a 9 1/2 x 23 subject either Navajo, Pima, or Apache. If you will let me know when you will have the negatives out of the files, I will send up for them. Yours very truly, W.C. Witte WCW/MM Aug 2nd 1904
