Dear Sir,

In acknowledging the receipt of your kind letter

See M to S. Simmonds, 2 June 1862 (in this edition as 62-06-02c).

I beg to assure the Trustees of the Brighton Cemetery that I shall at all times feel very great pleasure in aiding in their noble endeavours to ornament the permanent resting place of so many good people.

In the beginning of May of next year a large quantity of Plants will again be in readiness for distribution and in those you could gladly share.

Regardfully Yours

Fredrk Mueller
