MATTHEW, ASSOCIATE CURATOR [[/preprinted]] Aug 26 1909 Ausd Sept 21 Dr. F. W. True National Museum My dear D[[superscript]] r [[/superscript]] True We have been a long time delayed in getting the photos made for your paper, owing to other work having accumulated which had to take precedence, but they are done at last, and I forward them to you herewith. I fear there may be some further delay in the printing, as publication of our Bulletin has been suspended until the end of the year. Your paper was requisitioned for, and should take an early place as soon as publication work is resumed. As you may suppose, we are none of us very cheerful over the hold-up, but it had to be, and we are making the best of it Sincerely yours W.D. Matthew Photos received. Shall I send them? L.S. Aug 30. '09 Ausd Sept 21
