Sir, 
You have been so kind as to arrange for me to obtain 
the services of a plant collector in Sarawak and I am writing 
this formal letter to place on file my desires concerning 
his work for the present and something about the possible 
developments from this work. 
■ o

Arrangements to be made with the collector. 
I will pay the man you have selected $30/- per month and 
all necessary expenses, and will supply paper, field 
note books, labels, and other material needed for his work 
i 
estimate that the total expense to me will not be more 
than $100/ per month, and I propose, in the first instance 
that the arrangement should continue for one year, if 
satisfactory to both parties. I should like to have him 
come over to the F.M.S. for one month’s training with the 
Forest Department collectors. ]£ would be convenient to have 
Mir. here from the 10th. of Fgve 'her,and I mould suggest that 
he leave Kuchina by whatever boat will bring him here about 
that tire. l T is pay will begin from the time he leaved. 
Kuching, and I include herewith a postal money order for 
$100/” so that his passage can be paid and he can have 
» * - 
such advance as seems desirable.
