          it in those from Dr. Wood, for all the
others had gone under C. Hitchcockiana.
Indeed, I suppose you did not consider
that from Sartwell, for a good while, to be
that plant. For I never could believe C. Hitchcockiana
to be a var. of C. oligocarpa.
Having found the true C. oligocarpa Schk., it is
easy to get right some others. Mr. [Carey?]
puts C. Hitcha. as a good species, as I supposed
he would. I wish to send you some from
Dr. Wood.

I have put up C. oligocarpa from Dr. W.
& also C. Hitchcockiana from this quarter,
exactly that of N. Eng. You will see
the obovate [?] & [?] [?] of the first,
so that if the fruit was [?] [?] & not
enlarged it would be the fig. of Schk. so
exactly. The var. from Dr. Sartwell, &
which Gray named C. Sartwelliana, is
enough different from this to be marked
by a name, [&?], let it be var. Sartwelliana.
I send one of it that you may see what
I mean, the fruit sometimes partially contracted
into a [beak?] & sometimes acuminated into a
[beak?]. So, let it be.

I want your C. alata, greatly. Can
not you let me have it
