My dear iiss Lorens 
, Thank you oyer so much for the specimen; of 
Georgia ye 14 ue44a fro; He- knrrnkirt, You rill understand hov: 
glad I am to fet the specimen when I say that I had no specimens 
in my herbarium from ajjywherc . The only Hew England specimen I 
hare seen is a bery scant collection made by <7. H. Sears at Wertham, 
Mass. The specimen is in the herbarium of G.G.Kennedy. I think 
that your specimen is undoubtedly a now collection for the state 
of Hew Hampshire. 
I have records that give the plant as occurring in Alaska, 
British Columbia, ITowfoundlandt Cape Breton Island, IT ova Scotia; 
aolo Idaho, Kassachusetts, and (now) lev/ llano shire. I do not 
feel .sure that all the Canadian records arc entirely reliable, 
but in the absence of any contrary evidence I assume that they 
are correct. 
If the truth were known I should not be surprised if many col¬ 
lectors have passed this species by, thinking it was pel.lucI da . 
Thank you for the extra copy of your Franconia article which 
came several days ago. 
Tory truly yours,
