All of which I hope will meet your expectations. 
May I ask that,if in going over my specimens you note anything 
of especial interest or that is unusual to the species, you will 
make a note of it and transmit your observations to me. I wish 
to file in my herb rium, thus making it as interesting and as 
comprehensive as possible. 
Your letter of 16th inst was received this afternoon 
and I at once put up the above specimens to go forward. I have 
a number more nearly ready, which will go forward in a short time
