Date24 June 1926
DescriptionGives thanks for Prof. [John Charles Grant] Ledingham's opinion on two matters. 1: Agrees that [Charles James] Martin would be the best to undertake an obituary notice of [William Boog] Leishman, but does not want to overburden him. Asks Ledingham to suggest to Martin to undertake the obituary with his help. 2: States that the Sera will be sent to Ledingham along with a copy of a letter from the New Mexico College of Agriculture. Asks for Ledingham to work with Schutze and send the results in due course. Mentions a possibility of a grant becoming available for the project but cannot be certain.
