In regard to the picture at
Washington D.C. of the storming
of Chapultepec I have made
enquiries for you and would
recommend you to write Mr.
C. M. Bell Photographer or Mr.
M. D. Rice Photographer, both of
Washington. I am told they
both have copies of the pictures
in Washington. A letter addressed
[to] either or both at Washington
would bring a reply.
The average size of life size
male heads in portraiture ranges
from 9 or 9 1/4 to 10 in. Those
of heroic proportion are
larger, the size being determined
by the heighth [sic] of the position
from where they will be viewed
For a large head will appear
small if hung high enough.
