1899 HONDURAS DIRECTORY MISSING

  Bob Lyall writes that he has received a response from his
  email to the Library of Congress:

  "Dear Sir: This is in response to your query regarding the
  Directorio Nacional de Honduras.  First, though, I would
  like to tell you that we indeed are not receiving mail from
  the outside.  Your November letter never got to us.

 We have searched for your title and could not find it, even
  though it appears in the record.  We have consulted with
  other colleagues and they too, were unable to find it.
  There is one old record which indicates that we had
  received the year 1899, but it is not found in the place
  indicated in it.  It also seems that 1899 was the only
  year we ever received.

  Sincerely,
  Hispanic Division"

  [This confirms the suspicion that anthrax fears have derailed
  mail communications with the LOC.  Even worse, the
  trail runs cold in Bob's search for a copy of the directory.
  Any further help or suggestions would be appreciated.
