Dear sir
There were two or three plants that
you mentioned at your auspicious visit in October
last, and desired me to send you. The feat that they
would prove of little account, alone, has kindered
my doing so before. I have now put them up.
With a very few others, and send them by Harnden.
On account of the small n'o of specimens, I thought
they would best reach you in this 4to Memoir
which I selected as the most convenient thing
to put them in, as I had no pasteboard. 
The Viburna, I have no doubt are the true 
V. nudum + V. pyrifolium of the Fl. Bost.
As Dr. Bigelow is said to have long given up
the buisness of exchanging - I think they may 
have some value, which they would not have
of their own account. The Monadnock plant
grows just below the bald rocky summit, in 
abundance. I gathered what I supposed the same
