          Apr. 1889

  Mr. G. Brown Goode
      Assistant Secretary Smiths. Inst.
   Dear Sir:- I herewith enclose my report for the month of April 1889.  I would especially request your perusal of the few words I have ventured to offer concerning the disposition of the Indian foods, which involve the principle that a Curator should work for the welfare of the museum as a whole rather than for a fine display in his own department.

                  Yours very truly
                           R Hitchcock

April 30/89
