I make this last suggestion because at this time no one else,loucc except Dr S, you 
and I, have but very few Panama specimens, and it is quite easy now to correct any 
errors. 
Referring to the Angraecum specimen sent you, 1 find that I spelled the name 
wrongly ( I was at my office when I wrote the letter and gave the name from memory). 
It should be A. Kotschyi. If you will refer to page 251 of The Orchid World, Vol III* 
for 1913, you v/ill find a long illustrated article on this plant written by its dis¬ 
coverer, as well as on others from Uganda. Perhaps you are familiar with the article 
I am looking forward to a renewal of your letters, they always interest me 
and tell me something that I wish to know. 
No doubt you received the package of 5 specimens sent you the day before wy 
leaving for Ghiriqui. 
With assurances of esteem and good wishes. 
Sincerely yours

P.S. In order to keep the record straight- You have been addressing me as Dr. t 
should be Mr. I am not a physician, but am and have been the Clerk at this 
Dispensary for 13 years. A great many people here call me Dr as a co urtesy ti tj.c 
because of my long service with the Canal Zone Health Department, in Its 
Dispensaries. I have been intending calling your attention to this,but have 
overlooked it when writing.
