The reason that I am short of flowers of the foregoing mentioned, 
is that I sent Mr Rolfe all that I had, expecting to make my specimen 
when plants flowered again- but unfortunately they died first. 
If the old Indian brings me a Selenipedium chica and only one, 
this will go to you. I wish your herbarium to be perfect^

I am sending you herewith copy of a list I'r Schlechter ? received 
on Jan 21st. From his letter I am sure that a list has gone astray, as 
he refers to some determinations of numbers,which I have not received. I 
am waiting him Today regarding it. It may be that he forgot to mail 
it and it is among his papers. 
Yery sincerely yours
