 Dear Doctor


 Though I have herbm [herbarium]
 paper enough to last 6 or 8 months
 longer. Yet I think of joining
 Eaton (who wants I should get
 him a stack) & have a new
 lot made. You know, my
 last lot [added: (of 50 reams)] was very mat & good,
 & I shall order new lot like
 it. To get it on the best
 terms it is needful to make
 a considerable order. If your
 stack is low, & you care to 
 join us, let me know.


 The last lot weighed 18 or 19 lbs
 pr. [per] ream, and cost me $3.40 a
 ream.


 Hochstein wanders about still,
 with nothing to do.


 Hays [Hayes] & Mrs. Hayes dreadfully disapppointed
 at not seeing you, when you called.
