My dear Sir
I write a few lines to say that the boxes per Norfolk and Dover Castle have arrived safely
I have also to thank you for your letter of the 1st Jany. I shall be very glad when I can get on again with the Australian Flora as I should really be anxious to get through the Phaenogamous plants whilst I retain health and strength to work I have now far advanced the Brasilian & hope very soon to set to Australian
Yours very sincerely
George Bentham
