Dear Waldo: 
Delighted to have heard fro'n you and that there are 
some more i^Myae for me to look at. I wish I had had these i 
erials last autumn, but one ca'nnot get the>'i before they are col 
lectedil I could have used the records. 
I will be happy to w ork them over w hen I can, but 
his cannot be for a little w hile. I leave in about 10 days 
4. 1 
for the Interna tional Botanical Congress in Montreal and 1*11 
not be back in chigan until near the end of September. It 
is i roossible to do anyt-iing before I pro becausd of pressure 
of other work and a foreign visitor expected about the 5th. 
Best send them to Michigan to be dealt v/ith late in the Fall 
when I can. 
V/hen I get back I expect to be met with proofreading 
on my tropical marine algae book v;hich brings together my Dry 
Tortugas days and every experience and all submitted material from 
Brazil north to our S.B. states and Bermuda since that time. It 
v;ill yield about 3>0 printed pages, 80 plates etc., and will keep 
me desperately hu^y in the early autumn. I v/ish I could have added 
the new records these specimens would bring, but cannot add anythin 
more .
