          And

Rochester Oct. 30. 1840.

Dear Sir,

I am now putting up plants for
you, such as I think you need, not many, but
some, to go with a parcel [for?] Lepham. I
have looked over the Carices sent to me, &
shall send them to you with the others.
as you have C. macrocephala already, I
should like to retain the specimenn of it in
this collection, if you can permit. It is
not a very good one, but well enough.
Have you not a copy of Boott's Carices
for me, so that I can retain Dr. Gray's
copy, & you give him another? I
want to keep that paper, very
much, if you can help me to it.
I want a copy too of the last Edition
of Lindley's Introduction to the Nat. System.
Is it in N. Y.? can you get it, & let me
get it from you? I shall soon send the
money for the two Nos. of your Botany, rcvd.
in the summer. For your remembrance of
my name on the Californian plant, I can
only say, you have done well, commendation
maybe for good works. I
wish you to write me soon about those
things, as I must send soon, as the [Parcel?] will
