[Editorial Note: This letter was written in 1858, not 1875 (by which time Robert Kennicott was no longer alive) - "Fish Commission" and the year "1875" were written in a different handwriting, but this letter was written regarding an August 1858 visit by Robert Kennicott and Henry Ulke to Increase Lapham, collecting insects in Wisconsin.]
