TO 
ISAAC ANDERSON HENRY, ESQ,, F.LS, 
My Dear Sir, 
Your frequent contributions to the “ BoranicaL Maca- 
ZINE,” especially of Andean plants raised by yourself from seeds 
communicated by our indefatigable friend, Professor Jameson (late 
__.of Quito), your well-known skill as a Horticulturist, and your 
liberal patronage of that art, render it no less a duty than it is a 
pleasure to offer you the dedication of a volume of this work. 
Believe me, 
My dear Sir, 
Most faithfully yours, 
JOS. D. HOOKER.
