This specimen was secured from two boys who spent Xmas vacation collecting jackrabbits for furs. All of their operations were at Virginia, a small village near Blowney, Idaho. These boys supplied the following data: "From Dec. 25- 1928 to Jan. 6-1929. 140 jackrabbits were taken; only six of this number were of the white tailed species; also a special effort was made to take every white specimen observed." Cat No. 4 was secured from this lot. Feb. 16 - 1929. (over)
