content: In a letter dated April 24, 1904 in the accession file Emmons discusses sending baskets to the Smithsonian, and receiving some from the Smithsonian in return as an exchange. He mentions two "diminutive" baskets from B.C. that he has included with the artifacts he has sent to the Smithsonian. Emmons indicates that the two small baskets came from the Thompson River people living on the Fraser River across from Lytton, British Columbia, and that they seldom make small baskets. These two small baskets are presumably the two baskets #d E230016 and E230017.
