Bear Corner, 
You will now have Mohd, Mur ha oh at 
Singapore, Holttum said they could stay on a hit longer 
hut they appeared to have pretty well exhausted that 
particular ground so I gave order for their return. 
2, I was sorry I did nht see Kohd. Mur on 
his way down owing to the fact that l f ve just had a 
go in hospital 'with flu 1 , 
3, Mohd, ITur has apparently given us a 
supply of herbarium material of all the specimens 
authenticating timber samples. So when you come to 
make up a set of specimens for iCepong don f t duplicate 
% 
these. When the timber specimens have seasoned a bit 
I shall have your set prepared. 
4, The specimens authetieating timber col¬ 
lections are an interesting lot although I must say T 
am surprised that there is so little that has not been 
collected before at least once. A valuable collection 
none the less. 
5. I advanced $50/- to Mohd. Mur through 
Fairlie (Receipt attached). Will you please recover at
