My dear Sir

I recd.[received] some time in Dec your letter
dated 14 Nov & within a day or two the package
of plants which it announced the Alibama[Alabama]
plants I made a division of some time since 
I wrote Parker to tell him that I would send to
his address or keep them until he should send 
for them as he might advise. I have not yet 
heard from him  - there are some good plants amoung 
them & several which I have not yet been able at all
to make out - among others, I noticed a Larothia 
which I take to be the same plant which Drummod 
sent from the West & which Dr. Hooker has decided to 
be a new species. With your Carices I was very much 
pleased & I am much indebted for them they have supplied
desiderata & enabled me to decide 
several species which had been for a long time
