then Clitoria Mariana.  Reaching the pond, Clethra alnifolia and both Drosera
laryifolia and D. rotundifolia were found in flower.  While
collecting a few sizes, Xyris Caroliniana were found, this
being the first time that I have ever seen any of this
genus, the find created considerable pleasure.  Hypericum
adpessum is now in all its glory.  Ascyrum Crux-Andreae
were also found.  Reaching Marley I was very much surprised
to find already the Cardinal Flower, Lobelia cardinalis, near it
grew <s>also</s> the Climbing Boneset Mikania and Zizania
aquatica.  Another most excellent find was a patch of Polygala
lutea, most beautiful specimens.  In their name I named
the day P. lutea Day.  The two Rhexias, R. Virginia and 
R. Mariana&apos;s were also found, also Apios tuberosa.  Coming home I was over-
taken by Mr. Randall, an Episcopal minister.  He was in
his buggy and invited me to ride with him.  Mr. R. has 
5 churches.  He had been to G. and to M.  His home is
in Curtiss B.  I reached home at 7:15 p.m.

P.S.  Seed pods of Iris verna have now opened and seeds have 
been disposed. Following new plants were found.  Galactia
glabella, Marsilea quadrifolia, Eriophorum virginicum, E.
