My dear Sir:

My father says that last summer Dec. (2nd 1857) he forwarded by Howard Express 10,000 pins to you, expressage paid. to "Anna, Illinois." Did they arrive?

I got back 3 days ago in good health. & am ready to work again at entomology. & shall be glad to hear from you again on that & other subjects. & in great haste, remain ever

Sincerely yours John L. LeConte
