Abstract:
3 August 1901 - P. 34 From Woodward to Carter at Point Cloates,  
re: enclosed a note from Mr Milligan.  Will be glad to receive skin of Emblema picta.

12 April 1902- P. 376 From Woodward to Carter,
re: the lump of iron pyrites (more or less decomposed) must have been swallowed by the sheep, it could not have formed inside it for the life of a sheep is far too short for such a slow forming mineral. Shall be glad to recive the Emu skins.  Note the occurence of the quail [?] and [?] skins. Also noted about other Whistling Eagles.  


re letter to Mr Milligan regrets that can only enclose one Aerocephalus longirostris which was taken from the Reserve Collection but indicated he will get more. No need to return it. Has no speciments of Megalurus gramineus [?]  in the Museum.  

Would consider it a great favour if he would not send birds that Mr Milligan is keen to describe, to the Eastern States.
