A typescript letter presumably from James Bertram to John Barrett, director general, Pan American Union notifying Barrett that Andrew Carnegie received his letter of November 13, 1911 and that he would be glad to meet with Argentinean minister, Sen?or Doctor Don Ro?mulo S. Naon at 5:00 on November 20, 1911. The letter of November 13, 1911, from John Barrett, stated that Naon would like to meet with Carnegie to present a letter from Argentinean President Saenz Pen?a. Presumably in relation to a letter dated March 21, 1911 from Andrew Carnegie to C.H. Sherrill in which Carnegie writes that he agrees to comply with Sherrills request that he donate a copy of the Diplodocus (Diplodocus carnegii skeleton, located in Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) to Argentina. Carnegie also states in the letter of March 21, 1911 that he will only consider giving copies of the Diplodocus to a place when requests are made by heads of state.
