Be 
I again wish to stress the fact that I would only be too happy if there were anything 
I could do for you here and be useful to you. Please regard this note just as a 
New Year's greeting crossing the big water and therefore being a little late. 
I wish you many returns of this happy day! (This was written in English. C.L.) 
as you would say in English. 
Hoping that you are in good health I remain, 
Respectfully yours, 
Carl Bolle 
** See previous letter. 
I have seedlings of Pinus edulis which I grew myself. Before I plant these in the 
open country, I should like to know, sometime, whether this species promises to be 
hardy. 
Ihe following sentences unreadable. 
My God, how talkative, you will say. However, I still have to try your patience once 
more concerning another tree which as an evergreen deciduous tree is of the greatest 
interest to me. You know that the Arbutus in Burope exist only in the south. 
Now I hear and read that in Oregon Arbutus Menziesii is going north and is growing 
together with Tsuga Douglesii. 
Was there any opportunity in America to test the hardiness of Arbutus (Madronfo) ?? 
I mean undereultivation. 
Again, farewell!
