which, fixing its head quarters at Belize, would be able in the winter season to carry out a plan of operation similar to that just suggested. A definite expense would be thus fixed, and after an examination of the result obtained a decision could be come to whether it would be desirable to continue the researches. I have for some years given the subject much attention, and should look for great results from such an undertaking; the inevitable expense would probably preclude any private individual from attempting it, besides which to ensure success it should have government support. I should be glad to afford any assistance in my power, and believe that the information which I have obtained at different times would prove of use in carrying out the scheme I have ventured to recommend.
