THIS SPECIMEN WAS ORIGINALLY CALLED HAWAIIAN BUT APPARENTLY WITHOUT ANY DEFINITE DATA AND IT HAS NO RELATIONSHIP TO THAT AREA.- 5/1961 DR. DON MARSHALL." LEDGER BOOK MAKES IT CLEAR THAT 3 ARROWS WERE ORIGINALLY CATALOGUED AS #338761, HAWAIIAN. AS INDICATED ABOVE, ONE OF THESE ARROWS (APPEARS TO BE A BIRD ARROW?) WAS EXAMINED IN 1961 AND RECATALOGUED AS "NORTHWEST COAST OF CANADA." HOWEVER, IT APPEARS THAT THE OTHER 2 ARROWS WERE NOT EXAMINED AT THAT TIME AND THEY ARE NOT IDENTICAL TO THE ONE DESCRIBED. - F.
