Tue sons of my deceased friend Dr. Roxsurea being anxious 
that the Frora Inpica, on which he bestowed so many years of 
unremitting labour, should be presented without any farther delay 
to the scientific world, requested me to superintend the progress of 
these Volumes through the press, a request with which I cheer- 
~~~ fally‘complied. The first Volume formerly published being out 
- of print, it became necessary to reprint it in order to complete the 
undertaking ; that volume was enriched by the invaluable notes 
and additions of Dr. Wallich ; but as Captains Roxburgh did not 
consider themselves at liberty to make use of those additions with- 
out the permission of that eminent, Botanist,, they have beep omitted 
in reprinting the Volume ; ; the ‘present « dition of the Fiona, to be 
completed i in four ‘Volumes, will therefore consist of the MSS. left 
late Dr. Roxburgh, without say addition.
