March 7, 1940My dear Mr. McFadden:-

On behalf of the President and Board of Managers of the University Museum I beg to express deep appreciation of your generous contributions made during the calender year 1939 totalling $4822.60 which have been expended towards the costs of the Curium Excavations being carried on by you on the Island of Cyprus in the interest of the Museum.

The President and Managers of the Museum are especially appreciative of the two contributions made by you to the Museum through the Director, one on November 13 in the sum of $500. and a second on December 29 of $300.

Your gifts to the Museum, for which we extend our warmest thanks, have gone far towards advancing our scientific activities.

Very truly yours

Secretary
