CORRESPONDENCE, 
Lathyrus tuberosus. 
Christopher Parsons, Esq., of Shoebury Hall, wrote to me about a month 
ago to say that, having heard that this plant grew in Cauvey Island, he had 
been over to see, and found that it was so abundant over about twelve acres 
that this part was called the “ Gay Marsh,” from the profusion of its bright 
flowers. ‘The tubers ran so deep, that the farmers were unable to eradicate it. 
There is atradition in the island that it was introduced by the Dutch when 
they embanked the land about two centuries ago. Mr. Newbould has since 
been to visit the spot, and will be much better able to give you further parti- 
culars respecting it, 
pecking v G. S. GIBSON.
