A. Boutlou Correspondence
A letter written from St. Peter's Rectory, Fairmount W. Va., answers Edward J. Nolan's inquiry about a copy of Linné's "Species Plantarum," 1753. The Rev. Boutlou agreed to send his copy of this rare book, in two volumes, to the Academy with the provision that "more modern" books on natural hsitory be sent him in return. This letter along with the one written by Nolan to him on Dec. 4, 1907 is tipped in the front of the "Species Plantarum," vol. 1.

Academy of Natural Sciences Flag Carried by Lonnie Dupre to the North Pole
In 2009, Lonnie Dupre led a team of explorers on a fifty-four day trek across the ice to the North Pole, following the footsteps of explorer, Robert Peary one hundred years earlier. This trip commemorated one of the most famous early polar expeditions and raised awareness of the effects of global warming. To mark the Academy of Natural Sciences' early support of Peary's explorations, Dupre planted the Academy flag at the Pole.
