M's request was approved and forwarded to the Government Printer on 5 April 1865. It is not known what works, presumably from those published by the Government Printer, were requested. The most likely are his Plants indigenous to the Colony of Victoria (B62.03.02) and the first three volumes of his Fragmenta (B60.02.04, B62.02.03, B63.04.06). Although technically not 'his work', a request for the two then-published volumes of Bentham (1863-78) may have been recorded in this way by a register clerk.
