Dear sir, your very interesting 
package of pamphlets was received.
I believe that I have not acknolwedged
it, except by sending my paper
on the unicorn. I thank
you very much for the pamphlets
and for the information contained 
in the letter. I did but little
in collecting plants last year, being
sick during the month of 
March and April and absent in
September at New Haven. As
however, you observe that nothing
can come amiss, I have put up
three packages of plants for thee,
and put them into a box directed
to our friend Prince of Flushing
whom I shall request to send them to
