          We have many things new & interesting
 and I omit no opportunity of doing what
 little I can.  I have found a Suffruticose
 Liatris which is quite new.  I may send a 
 small specimen. I find another comp. [comparable]
 in habit very much like a Coreopsis
 but still differing from any thing I can
 find in your Flora. We have some
 8 or [crossed out: nine] [added: 9] species of Erioqonum.


 Yours in haste
