My dear Dr. Torrey

It is not often that
I have anything worth
sending to you, but I
have thought you might
like to see my figure
of Wellingtonia, & if 
as I believe some gentlemen
from California
are now in New York
(as Mr. Lobb tells me
they are) you will
perhaps kindly hand
the other copy to them
Messrs. Hanford & Williams,
