Department of State
Washington, 5 June 1877.
To Dr. George A. Otis,
Assistant Surgeon, U.S.A.
Dear Sir:
Many thanks for your attentive note of this date, with respect of the "Salmo Fontinalis", sent to you by my excellent brother. Having been much of an angler, and lover of the gentle art, it would certainly afford me great pleasure to take a look at him but, I must beg you not to to defer the opening of the box, as you have very kindly proposed, for my coming, as it will be impracticable for me to leave here this morning. With many thanks, repeated, for your attentions.
I am, very respectfully yours,
Your obedient servant[?],
A.H. Clements
