Dear Doctor!

This day I sent to you or rather to N.Y.
for you a copy of the Catalogue of N. Y. State
plants, with notes and remarks from the obseervations
I have made, on plants in the several portions of the 
state I have visited. It was put aboard of a 
Lake Boat the [I?] Smith of the New York, Syracuse & 
Geneva Line, and if no extra delays interpose this
Boat will probably be in New York by about
the middle of next week. You will please
inquire for the [?] about that time at the
Office . . [bracketed: T. M. Humphrey, Erastus Clark]113 Broad St
corner of Frank St New York

I am about laying out some plants from
your State Collections such as I think you
may require and such as I may have of
your desiderata.

I cannot yet give you a definite
answer with regard to the Pine Barrens
question, but on the whole I think favorably
of it.

Please send me word as soon
as you receive the package.
I received your favor of the
12th inst.

Believe me truly yours

P. D. Knieskern
