In the evening looked over Schmitt's Collection forms and was surprised to see how little of value he had. I picked out about all that had value and I do not think the lot will bring 15 pounds. Dras from Beatrice from the Mag- dalen Islands which if true is a greater value. Along with these were Farnits frithlandicus and a slot with Oethus lawr time that these are from Junction Cliff region of Anticosti, I have taken some of this material but it needs all to be looked into before being accepted, Also took a slot with the habit de- scribed by Richardson and named by Billig Paenichnits abruptus. From Red Book listed. Anticosti Island. 2,500,000 acres, 140 miles long 30 miles broad. Merin paid £125,000.
