Dr Sir

I found the rapids when you sent me a first rate plan for the salmon & those of them that were alive travelled off right smartly.

I am in hopes they will live & if they do & stock Milwaukee River it will be just as well as if they went up north.

Mr Mann put the 1000 into Oconomo woc Lake on Saturday.

I send you those specimens of which I spoke today by Express.

Please write me what you find there so that may satisfy the old man.

Yours truly

H. F. Dousman
