          visit with Dr Macdonald an
 your friends the Gulichs. They
 send love & say that Dr Short
 will be on this summer. Ought
 he not to take a sett of my
 plants?


 I hope, if you are not coming
 out, the drawings will be at
 Mr Burgers as early as Wednsday
 though they may not be
 called for till Thursday at 12 M.
 Please direct to Mr Vandeventeer.


 We are sadly off for text books
 & use a mixture of Darby Gray
 & Wood. Dr Hope & family & Mrs
 Brown & family sail for Havre &
 Switzerland on the 30th Both
 Dr Hopes & Dr [Thwaters?] family are
 persecutedwith the intermittent
 as badly as I am.


 Yours truly


 I. F. Holton
