W. J. Wirt. Syndonville Orleans Co. N.Y. Dec. 25, 1903 Prof. Dept. Bullen, Dear Sir I saw your name in the "Condor" and I write to ask if you would exchange some Hawaiian Bird skins for American Bird skins or sets of eggs. I would like to get one skin of each of the smaller species up to size of small Hawk, etc. If you can to exchange, send a list with prices for bid and I will send list of what I can offer, and if you do not care to exchange will you please hand this letter to some Collector. I wrote to the Bishop Museum but they were not in want of any American skins. Very truly yours, W.J. Wirt. Orleans Co. Syndonville N.Y.
