Providence, fed 20 
Dear Vernald: 
1 hope you made no special plans that were 
upset by my not going to Cambridge today. The storm was 
too much for me tc attempt to buck. 
You will be glad to know that of the 78 exposures (not 
80 as we thought at the time) made iriday 1 have about 70 
good negatives and some 8 more tr less passaoie. The fine- 
lined outline drawings seem to make poor negatives, but I 
think 1 can get something out of even those. The tree Ipomeea 
(with E.Palmer, and ccvecad with glass) came out very well. 
1 Delieve every herbarium specimen (all that 1 have noticed 
particularly) made an excellent negative. 
Sincerely, , «*-

One book moved, as you~-sa*id, _but not very much; I believe 
it is a plate of Cissus (?), if you had such a plate._
