          
What I supposed you to call C. [?]
is C. [margarita?], & what C. [vonia?] is, is
not so clear. It is a great pity more
of these species were not made distinct
- for they differ less than [?] given by
[?], as the same.

But I have 
no time to write you, only a line, &
must stop. I believe it is now two
months later than you led us to 
expect your first No. of Botany - 
and the next No. will probably 
be still after the time - for you
will get time of driving & let the
press [?] & drag & [long?] & vex you 
less. But as much for your comfort.

As ever your friend
