[handwritten] June 18th 1931 Mrs C. M. Russell. Pasadena, Calif. Dear Mrs. Russell, I have just unpacked the bronze and can hardly express my delight at having them on display this season. The Hopi Indian, #13 however is not in very good order, the plaster of Paris case and green cloth covering seem to be peeling off as if the plaster case was not thoroughly set or green, however I think it can easily be remedied. I am very pleased with the photograph, and fell that it will give a different side of Mr. Russell’s [next] [page 2] nature than what I now have. The idea of the bronze cast of Mr. Russell pleases me beyond words and I think your suggestion as to locating or placing it on the saddle case is very good. It couldn’t be better placed unless a special pedestal was built in the new part. This however is not advisable until a plan is designed and made possible for permanent cases. The Triggs seem happy and apparently are feeling fine. I hope you have a pleasant trip this summer and will find it convenient to stop a while in the Falls. Respectfully Schaudies [Transcribed by Melynda Seaton, 2011-10-19]
