9/7/1900 Dr. L. H. Pammel, Ames Iowa. My Dear Prof. Pammel, Your very kind letter has just reached me, and in reply will say that you are a much better judge of Cameras than myself, and any good one that will answer the purpose will do, of course I should like to have a first class one. Also the same respecting the micrometer. My microscope is of the Continental pattern (Bausch & Lomb.) I appreciate your kindness very much and trust I will be able to do something in the way of remuneration by sending you specimens. Yours very truly G. W. Carver. Best wishes to Mrs. Pammel & the children.
