          Since writing the inside of this letter I have been all over our 
village & talked up the matter of our botany, but no 
subscribers can be obtained of any amount. You may 
put down the names of William H. Scram & 
H.P. Sartwell as subscribers, what I think will 
be all in this county. I will try what can be done  
in Geneva. How shall we obtain the numbers as they come out?
