          Can you send me a copy of your Cyperaceae for Vasey
by the bearer? - And send me a list of any plants
you may still want from Oneida Co. - He is
now engaged in the study of medicine and promises
he will collect anything I want. - Will you inform
me too whether Rhynschospora cymosa is abundant near
Princeton and whether I may expect a good set
from that place? or is the locality exhausted? -

Dr. John Torrey

Princeton

N. J.

Whatever you may have to say to me you will
please communicate in writing for I cannot now spend
time to go to Princeton and besides this there is a
[?] reason which you will excuse me for
mentioning again - I must labour incessantly to try
whether I cannot make myself and family comfortable

I will write again soon,  Please
as you can spare time - Please give my respects to
Mrs. Torrey and family

I have just learned that there is a box of plants -? 
for me at Turner & Hughes 10 John St. NY. from Mr M A [Custis?]
