Our garden: NB. they are female plants. 



I have none of Geyer's plants; also Utile bar a dozen or so of Pendlers 

 and Lindheimers. 



Professor Asa Gray is a lovely person; unfortunately there was nothing I 

 could do for him as he and his equally lovely family were very busy and stayed 

 only a Short time. 



Your beautifui Tunicus collection is, thanks to God, here and in good 

 shape since last month. A thousand thanks! 



It is now 7.30 a.m. and at 8.30 begin the examination Performances 

 again at the University. If I do not quit right now I have no idea when I will get 

 around to it: you can see from the dates that the letter is on its second day. 



Live well, give my best regards to your gracious wife and with a 

 handshake I remain 



Your affectionate Cesati
