 My dear Sir


 Allow me to introduce to you
 my friend Mr. R.H. Lewis who sails for New York
 in a few days. Not knowing any Entomologists
 in America I send him to you thinking
 that among your Natural History acquaintance
 you may be able to introduce him to some.
 Any attentions you can pay him I shall feel
 grateful for.


 It will give me very great pleasure to send
 you any British or European Plants.


 If you would at any time send me a list of
 your desiderata I would be glad to
 send you such as I can.


 Among the plants you so kindly gave me
 when in England I find many good things.
 My favorites just now are Ferns and Orchidea.
 Can you send me any of the North American ones
 in which I am very deficient not having
 half a dozen specimens of either Order?
