          I was advised to get a small fount of types
and print them myself and I have succeeded
tollerably well.

I hope I shall find you in
N. York when I come down for without your
advice I should make but poor business collecting
either on Long Island or in N. Jersey.

Most of the plants you wish I can procure. all
with the exception of Hippuris & Aristolochia which
I have never seen.

I have a [poser?] of a 
Geranium here [added: very rare] which I must trouble you with
when I come it is now in flower and perhaps may
have soon full grown seeds when I come I believe
it is different from all the described species in the
Flora (I think [crossed out : [so)] at least) The plant is taller [than?]
G. carolinianum more slender the blossom
only about half as large and never fully expanded
similar coloured petals but shorter than the sepals

I have not time now to say anything
more about it but will give you a full
description of the habit and pecularities of the
specimen in my possession.

Believe me truly yours
