Dear Sir:_
In accordance with your instructions under date of July 27th, I am today forwarding you by Wells Fargo & Co., the three indian baskets you wrote for.
The two baskets ordered of me, are as follows;
Namely: No, 1, Umatilla Cap from McArthur Collection ___________________$9.00
" 2, Covered Thlinkit, with open work cover, __________________13.00
-----------
Total 22.00
for which you will please remit at your earliest convenience.
Since you made these selections, I have secured some pretty bowl shaped Neah Bay baskets, ranging
in price from $2.00 to $5.00 each, also some very good modern Quinaelts and course Alaskan ^ these last
seeming to be Esquina work of another kind than the Eskimo I sold you some time ago. Prices for the
last two kinds range from $2.50 to $13.00 according to size, etc.
The choice old Quienaelt to which I called your attention when here; you can have for $25.00.
Yours very truly,Subject
