Dear Mr. Leopold: 
Your letter of kagust 4th received. It was during the 
middle of the month of October 1925 that I observed mountain 
sheep watering in the Silver Peaks country about twenty-five 
miles south of Coaldale. Ileather 3onditions were moderate, 
cool nights -d as the natural grasses were iry, there was 
xonsiderable green browse on the mountains.
