          selected a large package from my duplicates
 He brought me a few N. Jersey & Esex [Essex] Mt. plants


 I have rec'd [received] a letter from Mr. [Trynian?] a
 member of the Boston Nat [Natural] History Society inquiring 
 the lowest I would take for the Zygodon as that 
 Society might purchase it. Professors Silliman &
 Gray had suggested the matter to the Society. I ask
 $500. Is that too much? I must dispose of it
 in some [added: way] previous to starting for Florida & if no
 one will buy it in this country I will send it 
 to London as you once suggested. I have rec'd [received] 
 a letter from Dr. Gray who says he will allow
 a reasonable compensation for all that I may
 collect for the botanic garden. I did not receive
 your letter in time to ship my plants on the
 last London packet but they will go in [added: the] packet 
 which sails next Monday -(the Toronto) If you
 are willing I will request Mr. Pamplin [William Pamplin] to remit
 tha proceeds to you & you can forward them to
 me because I am not certain where I shall be
 & my friends live in the interior of this state so
 that there might be some risk in having it sent
 to them. I send out 10,000, specimens & have fixed
 the price at $5,00 the hundred for the whole having placed
 the Alabama & Carolina [added: plants] the same packages


 Yours truly
