rear Bartlett: 
la y 12, 1900, 
I have just received a small ackage from Dr. G. 
'arnstorf which certains two s ecimens of the rev. Pphagnum 
Favori which was described in a recent ntimber of Ehodora. One 
packet is narked 'verb, arblett" and is, I suppose,for you. 
.'ere you expecting a specineAl I wrote to arr.ctorf some 
week'-' ago asking him. if he could tell me where 1 could get hold 
of a s ; ecimon, ho dm that he would do just what he has. 
I know that Dr. Parlor; is extremal;, anxious to get a specimen 
and I shall divide mine wit’ him, unless he has e£s««r tfesra lately 
succeeded in getting a specimen himself. lour specimen is in 
two pieces and perhaps you will k cl like dividing with r. 
Parlor too. That would, -give him a somewhat better showing 
on the species. The package cam© to the college today and I 
ar now at the house. I will try to bring it up here tomorrow 
so as to have it ready to .-.end when I ho- r from you. In the 
meantime I will write to hr. Parlow saying that 1 have got a 
specimen that I car divide with him, hut shall rot feel at liberty 
to mention you in connection with the matter until T hear from 
you. 
Cordilal; yours,
