Dear Sir.
I have just time to inform you, that I have crudely dried for you a large case with
many thousand Austr. Algae, which require to be resoaked & to be put on paper, for
which purpose I had no time just now. I shall send them in the course of this week
probably pr "Young Australian" to Mr Redhead of London. The freight to London will
be paid here.
If you have any dried plants to spare for us, pray let me know. Should any of your
scientific societies wish me to send any thing I shall feel it a honor to procure
for them what I can
