My de ar Mr. Davenport : - 



Your letter containing determinations of 



Nelson's ferns has been received. I thank you very much for your 

 promptness in determining these plants. Yes, you can use the 

 Agricultural Department franks in returning the plants. I do not 

 think there are any duplicates of #784, but if there is you are 

 welcome to them. Dr. Palmer has collected some ferns about Aca- 

 pulco. I suppose you would be willing to determine them. I will 

 try and get you a set of . duplicates . 



Yours very truly,
