While at Constantinople I received a telegram from Philadelphia advising me that continuance Of the Expedi tion was improbable, and a letter from the President of the Fund, asking for my resignation. I could not but feel that the Committee was quite justified in making such a request, buti feared that my resignation would be the end of American exploration in Babylonia for some time to come. My effects returned from Trebizond to Constantinople on the 22d, and on the same day I started for Bremen, stopping at Dresden on the way to see my family. My wife's representations that my honor was at stake, and that I must carry the Expedition through to success or perish in the attempt, fixed my resolution to endeavor to secure the continuance of the work under my own direction.
