Curatorial Records: Numbered Correspondence 00722
War Department,
Surgeon General's Office,
Washington, May 31, 1895.
My Dear Doctor:-
Your letter of May 22d related to two supposed cases of leprosy has been received. I am so very much occupied with my official duties that I have no time for making personal investigations in a matter of this kind. I will, however, refer your communication to Major Walter Reed, Surgeon, U.S. Army, Curator of the Army Medical Museum, who will I have no doubt be glad to examine the specimens and who is entirely competent to give you an opinion on the matter.
Very sincerely yours,
(Signed) Geo. M. Sternberg.
Dr. C. O. Probst,
Sec. State Board of Health,
Columbus, Ohio.
