Dear Henderson , 
Thanks for your letters of May 8th and 
May 20th, and above all for the extensive bibliographic 
dates on Ridley’s work. I hope you will he able to get 
still some copies of older articles of his* After that 1 
will ask him personally, though he lias already sent once 
a large packet. 
For Malayan Forest Records I’ll write to Selangor. 
Please send us a duplicate of that D re0 bolus. There are 
eo many specimens pasted on the sheets, that it might be 
possible to loossem one? 
Of course I ’will try to get the other material of Fupa- 
torium named* I never heard of any toxic effect in the 
genus• 
I have be® reading an article by the Rev.J.K.Tenison 
-Woods in Transact. Linn. Soo*New South Wales ser. II,vol.ii. 
for the year 1889, p.9*^-^^# with 9 plates, entitled On 
the Vegetation of Malaysia”. iHeeats however with the 
flora of the Malay Peninsula and the trips of that gentles 
man, who also collected in your country. It contains a.o* 
itenary, relations to Cantley and Scortechini, a List of 
Ferns of the Malay Peninsula (p*75~ 80)# flora o f ' limest~ 
one rocks, p.?l|-35 (only few remarks,and hardly any about 
the flora),laterite forests,dipterocarp forests*a.s.o. 
Now is the question whether you or Holt turn have ever read 
it. It is not in our library,bub I got it from Batavia.
