Department of Geology

February 25th, 1929

Dear Dr. Holmes:-

I am lecturing on the Geology of the Yellowstone National Park before the Geological Society of Washington on the evening of February the 27th.  I am particularly anxious to see you when I am in Washington; and if you could spare a few minutes of your time to come to the lecture  both Dr. Jones and I would appreciate it very much indeed.  I am hoping that we may be able to dine together before the lecture, or possibly have a bite together afterward.

I am asking Dr. Goldman, of the Survey, to see you and determine if this can be arranged.
I sincerely hope, however, that you wil not allow my wishes to interfere in any way with your plans or tire you out in any way.

I am looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you again.

Very sincerely and cordially yours,

^[[R. M. Field]].

Dr. William H. Holmes
