          No. 17 resembles Cyperus [poaeformis?], but is another
 species, a specimen of which you was so good as to send me,
 What is No. 18.       No. 4 I called Aira caespitosa, & resembles
 that you sent me, but I found it on Saddle Mt. at an 
 elevation of 2000 feet. Is it what I called it?   The label
 for Onoclea sensibilis, I must have [conlply?] put on 
 O. nodulosa - I recollect sending several of O. sensibilis.
 I can not find Phalaris [arundinacea?] - how mislaid it -
but I know well where it grows. I do not know any Lili
 num [Lilium?] - & can not think what I sent, which is this 
 plant. I sent several without names, which were not
 asked for, & which I supposed you well know a would [readily?]
 discover, mainly for comparison with similar plants
 if you found them in your portion of the country. 
 Anemone nemorosa from Virginia in much larger
 than ours here. 


 I am glad to have the prospect of hearing from 
 the Coreopsis, Asters etc. They are a troublesome race.
 I have two or three, I think, which I did not send? 
 I hope this summer to [?] more fully into these
 genera. I have not been pleased with them, altho'
 I have often given up a specimen as undiscovera
 ble, which another examination has found out.


 I should be glad to know what plants you
 want. I shall be too much occupied this summer
 to collect anew all the plants - &, I should be
 pleased to send you what are rare to you.
 I had hoped your Catalogue would be published
 before this, & that I should have had the pleasure
 of [perusing?] a copy.


 The grasses trouble
 me - I can be of very little service to you in re-
lation to them, or, indeed, any thing I fear.
