I have held y©url®bt®r far a day or two “before 
replying to it, hoping that I sight be able to^two or sure® 
persons who might be able to do the work on the mosses, in case 
they were available. However, I have been able to think of 
only one person who sight be fitted for the work'™*hr, 2, J, 
Winslow, whose address is. I think, 22,2 Grove St,, Aubumdalo, 
Uses, I know that he has beer, considerably into rested in the 
mosses in the past, but I cannot c* y to just want extent he 
is prepared to undertake the typo of work that you desire. 
Hr, Winslow is a prominent member of the ITew England Botanical 
Hub, and is well known to hr, Bobinson, Prof. Fernald mid 
numerous others, tmj of whom could give you information regard¬ 
ing hi®. He has always impressed mo as being a reliable and 
intelligent botanist. Ho is, I third:, more interested, at least 
at the* present time, in ferns' tlrnn in mosses. 
My own time is protty well occupied with my regular 
ditties, except evonlngs and Sundays. If it shoudl so happen 
that you are unable to get the assistance that you dosirs. and 
Sunday work is not tabooed, possibly I night oo able to help 
you whenever I am allowed to b® In this ;part of ilmt England 
in the course of my regular work, I a® afraid tuie arrangement 
would not prove very satisfactory. However. 
Very truly yours,
