Dear Eernald: 
Am glad to note that yon are to tell us something about the 
Gape flora at nest meeting of the IT.11,3.0. I presume you will oo rather 
busy Friday picking out specimens to show, and I am wondering if I ought 
to take up a package of Block Island plants (mostly sedges) for you to 
look at in the same mamiefc that you did the package of Juncus specimens 
a month ago. Had I better postpone taking then with me for a month? 
The specimens are mainly hosts for rusts and often are not complete 
so far as all diagnostic Characteristics are concerned-about the same 
as the specimens of Juncus. 
If you will indicate your wishes on the enclosed card I will govern 
myself in accordance^!hem. 
Sincerely, 
J. D: nnklih Collins
