Correspondence, May 24, 1937: Bass fellows and visiting scientists

Abstract

This item is part of a series of letters, telegrams, and notes relating to people who came to do research at the Bass lab. The Bass Biological Laboratory was a functioning research laboratory as well as a biological collecting and field station. The lab was located in Englewood, Florida, and operated during the 1930s and 1940s. This letter is presumably from John F. Bass Jr. and addressed to Archie Fairly Carr Jr. who frequently visited and researched at the Bass lab. Carr's work at the lab involved mainly fish, amphibians, and reptiles. He married Marjorie Harris, a technician at the lab, in 1937.
