Excerpt from Nippur or Explorations and Adventures on the Euphrates, Vol. 2: The Narrative of the University of Pennsylvania Expedition to Babylonia in the Years 1888-1890; Second Campaign 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.
