This collection has about 100 type specimens. He wants to present all of this material to Peabody Museum in consideration of an adequate place to work and to use the university facilities. Of course some official title should be given him as for instance Research Associate. He has an income of $2500 a year but this is pretty not enough for him and his wife to live on. He wants me to find out what he can live on at New Haven, not in the Country or an acre or two of land.
