In this letter, written to New York City photographer, George Rockwood, Peary is paying for and asking about photographs of himself (that Rockwood took and sent to him) that he had received yet. Peary also promises to send Rockwood a copy of his "Arctic narrative" (his book Northward over the "great ice," published in 1898). The letter may be written by another person, but Peary signed it. There is also a note, possibly by Rockwood, "Have ordered 1dz" on page two.
