Syracuse,N.Y.,24 July 1892 
My dear Deane, 
Your card at hand and I enclose a list of a few of my N.E 
desiderata(Monocots.)which I would prefer to grasseseven as I have now 
a good representation of therm . I am trying only to get a representa¬ 
tion collection. 
Why did you never tell me that you were a "Dickey" in Harvard ? 
I should like to have talked to you of its relations to the Delta Kappa 
Spsilon fraternity of which it was a chapter and of which I am myself 
a member. Fraternal greetings and a shake anyway• 
You must come to the meeting of botanists at Rochester Aug 17-24 
this year. There will be a large party there and it will not be far 
so there will be no kind of a refusal left for you.
