Dear Sir,

I intended to ask you what
changes you had made in your opinion
of the Carices published by you. I
wish to know this for my aid. That
from the Quaker bridge is C. Halseyana.
The little one, I do not yet see
what. C. digitalis, I have found today,
as I suppose, with the broad leaves
mentioned by Muh. & very like C. oligocarpa.
C. disperma presents a slightly
difft. appearance here. C. [aurea?], with
only two stigmas, all oveer here. The
[?] Fig. of C. plataginea in
Schk. is plainly the fig. of C. anass,
as I said before. I have the specimen so
like the fig. that you know he [drew?]
from [one?] just like it. Will you be
so good as to lay out for me
in this matter, that I may get
hold of all the species.

I am reading all Schk.'s popular
