"besides some special a^d graduate work, with no 
assistance other than that sunplled hv two under¬ 
graduate^ neither of whom have ever studied "botany 
"before. T have credited you with the mosses on 
my moss "ledger' so there ■’s so”? prospect of your 
retting something in return sometim e. 
v es, there^good hepatics in fasne, T think 
vou will see^some of them later . T got abottt 
F°0 numbers of p r$rophytes and lichens (and a few 
fungi) this summer, and more than POO photographs.
