          by the same person as I used the same list 
to mark my [crossed out: list of] duplicates and wants by, 
but used different marks; my own fault lies 
in not having carefully examined and corrected 
them before I sent them to the printer, it 
is now too late, and I have learned a good 
lesson by it. Inclosed you will find 
am't [amount] to pay postage on your letter to Laurenceville.

I saw Mr. Bush on Saturday last.
He informed me that you expect to take a 
tour in the Pines this week. Can you not take 
Freehold in your way either as you go or 
return? If you can, you will please quarter
yourself on me, and I will visit the localities
in this neighborhood with you. I am 
progressing with the catalogue. Kieskern has 
sent me his list upon which I find several
that I had not down, I notice that quite 
a number are not marked in my book that 
I have seen growing here. Did you know that 
Trillium cernuum grew in this co [county]? Some specimens 
were shown me by Miss Rankin, one 
of the teachers in the Young Ladies' Seminary
here. They were procured within a mile of the
village. I have not seen it growing. I shall
be absent from my home tomorrow and a part of 
next day but shall be home after that, and 
shall be at your service.

I am with respect
yours 
O.R. Willis.
