Dear Sir:

Referring to your letter of the 29th ult., in regard to an old and worn out set of artificial teeth, I would state that I cannot make you an offer for the same, without previous inspection. In case, however, you should desire to present it to this Museum, it will be placed in the Museum collection, properly labeled, and credit given you as donor. It may be sent directed to the Army Medical Museum, by Adams express, which has authority to receive it and collect charges here.

Very respectfully,
Dallas Bache
Col. & Asst. Surgeon General, U.S.A.
In charge of Museum & Library Division
