The r= eason I name that time is that we are going home about February 7 and sai= l for Italy on February 21; so I am hoping that it arrives so we can at l= east talk about before I go. It is good to get another octahedrite from d= own there, as most of the irons from that region are hexahedrites and pre= tty much alike. I left the section of the furnace bolt with my man in Ann Arbor before le= aving home, and in due time I expect he will send me the pictures. The et= ched surface shows a peculiar very large granulation which I never happen= to have observed before in artificial iron. We are going to be gone about four months in Europe -- two months in Ital= y, then a while in France, and a month or more in England. My daughter an= d her husband will be with us and we are looking forward to a fine trip With all good wishes for the New Year, Sincerely, (Stuart Perry - name is missing as this is the file copy. The original se= nt to Nininger would have been signed by Perry) (Letter transcribed by Mark Bostick, www.meteoritearticles.com) ------=_NextPart_001_0028_01C41C7D.AF47E230 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <HTML><BODY STYLE=3D"font:10pt verdana; border:none;"><DIV><FONT size=3D2= > <P>(Stuart Perry to Harvey Nininger letter, Perry's File copy)</P> <P>J= anuary 1, 1949 (It appears Perry wrote the wrong date, this should read J= anuary 1, 1950)</P> <P>Dear Nininger:</P> <P>I was glad to get your lette= r the other day stating the Peru iron is going forward, and hope it arriv= es by February which I think it should.
