5/11/68

Dear Mr Rawlins

Should the R. S. be inclined to send to the "Oberhessische Gesellschaft für Natur- & Heilkunde" in exchange for the publications recently received

The society, based in Geissen, published Bericht der Oberhessischen Gesellschaft für Natur- und Heilkunde, of which vols VII, IX, X, XI and XII had been received by the Royal Society of Victoria and reported at the Society’s meeting on 8 October 1868 (Transactions and proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria, vol. 9, p. xxvii).

any in return, then pray let me have them soon, as I am about to send in a few weeks a case to Germany, into which the publications might be included freight free.

your very regardful

Ferd von Mueller
