Gray Herbarium 
Garden Street 
Cambridge, Massachusetts 
Dear Professor Fernald: 
I enclose herewith a copy of a letter just received from the 
Treasurer's office, and a copy of Mr. J. Franklin Collins' will. These 
documents are self-explanatory. 
Can you supply me with a brief statement for the benefit of 
the Treasurer's office, indicating those items appertaining to the Gray Herbarium 
that have already been received there? 
I think that it would be a good idea if you would report to the 
New England Botanical Club at the next meeting the provisions of Professor Collins 
will that appertain to that organization. Unfortunately, I will not be able to 
attend the next club meeting, as I am leaving for Cuba on February 4. 
Very truly yours 
Director
