Dear Sir, ^ 
Last year you very kindly arranged for a shipment of foliage to be sent to 
ns and as we are requiring more we should be grateful if you would again be so 
kind and let us have the following *- 
(a) About three ewts of Club Moss (Lycopodium Cernuumj* 
(bj About five cwts of Bakau leaves (Rhisophora). We would like these to be 
approximately the same size as the enclosed specimens* 
rr ,-q>- 
The ’preserved' specimens in envelope A, and those in envelope B, are from 
leaves received in tne last consignment and we understand that both are akau eaves. 
There appears, however, to be a difference, and we prefer, those in envelope A as 
they do not appear to be quite so brittle after being ’preserved’, especially the 
main stems. We shall be grateful if you will kindly tell us it thes- two s<et. 
are of different varieties or if they have been picked at different seasons, and 
if they are not of different varieties, the reason for the difference between them. 
Pour blank: Certificates of Origin are also enclosed. You will remember that 
Customs here have ruled that it is necessary for the certificates.to be aped 
by the actual oolleotor of the foliage and in the country o. origin. n t 
connection please see our letters of 14th and 27th March, 1935. 
A duplicate of this letter is enclosed in ease you wish to send it forward 
with your instructions* 
Yours faithfully
