My dear Dr. Kennedy: 



The flowers of that peculiar Crataegus 

 that grows on the summit of Mt. Y/illoughby have 

 never been collected. Can't you get theia for 

 us this spring? The collection won't be com- 

 plete without Crataegus Kennedyei and this is 

 a good one for the name. If you get the flow- 

 ers, do not forget to note the number of sta- 

 mens and styles and the color of the anthers. 



I wish we saw you more frequently here. 

 Yours very truly, 



Dr. G. G. Kennedy j 



Readviiie, Mass.
