Dear Rep. Sam I've been interviewed often by the Press and here is my "chance" to bring out the conduful geology of Texas and its resources, all with the ulterior purpose that he will then can use it to raise either among himself or for the Legislature to appropriate one million dollars for a museum building, equipment, ships and fellowships. I'm sure all Sam but Sam thinks that [illegible] is trying to make his $100 investment in me eventually worth one million dollars, good heavens if it all turns out as he thinks! It appears they have fair facilities to do some work, but as far as I have not seen other forms they have to illustrate the guide forms of the many formations.
