I would once more call your attention to the necessity that devolves upon me to spend a considerable part of my time in work which could as well be done by any person who can read and write. In order to get my collections in order such work must be done, and I am very unwillingly forced to so it myself, knowing that my time could be much more profitably employed.
 
After long waiting there is a prospect that the drawers can be arranged in my [[underlined]] ante-room [[/underlined]] during the present week, when I shall be able to classify all the material in my charge, which will be done during the coming month, if there are no delays in withdrawing articles from storage. I deem it unfortunate that I am obliged to keep the E balcony in some disorder, but this will only continue until the work of classification is complete.
