My dear Mueller

Enclosed is the Bill of lading for the box of cuttings, succulents &c

See J. Hooker to M, 19 October1866.

— for which we have paid freight of £7.10. ! I hope it will give you satisfaction.

I see that you now send Fungi to another party. I do not know his address, but have sent them to Hardwicke the publisher.

See M to J Hooker, 9 September 1866; the ‘other party’ was probably Worthington George Smith: Hardwicke published W. Smith (1867).

Thanks for yours of 20/8/66 just received.

M to J. Hooker, 20 August 1886 (in this edition as 66-08-20b).

I am collecting more seeds of Water plants which shall go by first mail of next month.

The Parliamentary Estimates of Royal Gardens & Parks (including Kew) for two years, will go in next box to you. They are rather too bulky for C. O.
