letter, 22/12/1936, T. Lindsay Buick, Alexander Turnbull Library to Mr Skinner, Letter congratulating Skinner on his appointment as director of the Otago University Museum in succession to Benham. Buick expresses he hopes his relations with the museum can continue to be 'most cordial' as they have been in the past. The second half of the letter discusses a moa-hunter camp at the mouth of the Waitaki River, and although much of the passage is illegible it appears there is some type of conflict between Buick and Otago Museum staff working at the camp site which he wishes to resolve with Skinner. Buick expresses he would like to come to Dunedin to discuss the 'problem' of the 'moa-hunter camp' with Skinner, and to view the collection of stone tools which were found there.
