October 22, 1924.

Dear Mr. Maurer:

Just before Mr. Stefansson left for a lecture tour of three or four weeks, he had an interview with Mr. Noice who had returned from Brazil a short time before. At this interview Mr. Noice signed a retraction and apology for many of the essential points of the story that he published last fall. Mr. Stefansson has asked me to send a copy of this apology on to you. It explains the whole situation, I believe.

Sincerely,

Secretary to Mr. Stefansson.

Mr. John Maurer, New Philadelphia, Ohio.
