Sear Chamberlain:- 
I inclose postage for your offering in the 
current Bryologist, If you have not already sent me the Irish 
specimens offered in the Sept, issue I would be very glad to 
get those also, i don"t remembei ever having written you for 
them, but I have been so busy that I might easily have over¬ 
looked it. Am having a vacation now and trying to catch up 
a little, without making a "howling success" of it. Hope we 
shall all see you and your mother ere long. . All pretty well 
here. Happy Hew Year to both of youl 
Cordially,
