 Mr. B. Braman


 Dear Sir


 I am
 very sorry that you did not
 receive my letter containing
 descriptions of such plants as 
 I supposed might be new
 But you have the specimens
 & with the herbarium & books
 of the Torrey Club you can decide
 better than I. Those which I 
 think to be new are the 
 [Xanthoxylum?], Quercus vaseyana
 Q. Moriana, Bromelia Monticola 
 & [Tex??a?]. The other [crossed out: were]
 have been recognized as good
 species by the leading botanists
 of the country & which I
 thought might be acceptable
 to your herbarium.


 Quercus Durandii var san
