My dear Deane: 



I have/your letter of the 14th enclosing additional mat- 



ter for your notes II. About the illustrations: I am afraid that 



the plates will cost/too much for our pocket-book. Those half-tone 



plates cost us about $9 apiece and $3 for printing. That would make 

 the bill for five $60. We should greatly like to illustrate the ser- 

 ies of seedlings of the Pouted eria, and also your Utri cularias. Could 

 you not combine the Fontederias somehow and get some of your friends 

 to make outline sketches of them which we could photo-engrave ? Send 

 yVl£, the prints and let me see what can be done with them. 



I bad no copy of Riverby before yours came. I should have obeyed 

 your first injunction had 1 possessed a copy. 



The next issue of the Gazette containing an installment of your 

 notes will have a brief account of your herbarium and the grounds of 

 your confidence! 



I hardly dare send MS. with proof for fear proof will be lost or 

 so delayed that tfce article will have to be corrected by us by MS. and 

 so issued. 



Miss Owen's Tillaea note will appear in Feb.no. I have only been 



waiting for a hole to tuck it in. 



Yours ever
