My dear Sir,

I was very glad to hear from you,
& am much obliged by that figure. It is as
well as if I had it. I should only have made 
more particular remarks about it in my
appendix, & if you have any to offer, please
to let me know them. Now, I have another favour
to ask, viz., that you will fig. [figure] also for me
C. foena [Carex foena]. You will have the honour of all
this, & cannot you [form?] also with my little labours.
Can not you fig. also C. [Carex] fraseri, affinis, 
podocarpa, aristota R. Br. [Robert Brown], india [indica], viridula, 
misandra, concolor, mutica, richardsonii, 
concinna. But I want particularly C. foena, & C. 
viridula. As your mon. [monographs] is printed & gone, I 
wish you would aid me in this & all this. It is 
the more important to me, as I have given 
so many figs., & as besides your mon. is 
likely to be studied with my figs., & if you 
add these figs. to yours, it will add but 
little. Indeed, while I should be glad to give you 
these figs. of Arctic Carices, I can little 
compound with the two, I have noticed. 
You draw cosily, & it will not be great 
trouble, two, at least do give me. I 
may see you in May or June but I need 
these before that time.

I hope to get these Carices & Agardh 
when the river opens. I can get them from 
Eaton. I hope you have no quarrel with 
him. He has familiarities, but means 
well, as I think.
