          from your [mannner?], that he
is arranging grasses etc. in collections.
I wish I were able to get a set, &
number after number. I can not tell
what help can be obtained for him in
this quarter. I will see how the
article looks, when I come down,
& perhaps, I may be able to say
such things to a [few?] [richer?] men,
that they will obtain them. I
shall be glad to do all I can.
We can speak to Dr. Emmons, & Dr.
Porter, for the Carices in this quarter;
I do not know who else can get them.
I have a few of some of them, that
I should be glad to let him have.
But, some must be employed to get
so many, as you mention, of each.

Just look around among your
friends for a bag or two for me. I
need help greatly. High regards to Dr. Grey

Your friend
