Melbourne im bot Garten,

10/8/72.

Vielleicht ist es Ihnen nicht bekannt geworden, dass in London bei John Snow & Co, 2 Ivy Lane, in diesem Jahr das kurze "Journal of a missionary voyage to New Guinea" by Murray & McFarlane erschien. Ich habe nur eine Copie, u. daher werden Sie lieber das kleine Buch direct beziehen wollen.

Melbourne Botanic Garden,

10 August 1872.

You have perhaps not been aware, that the short Journal of a missionary voyage to New Guinea, by Murray and McFarlane,

A. Murray & McFarlane (1872).

was published in London by John Snow & Co., 2 Ivy Lane. I have only one copy, so you had better obtain the small book from there directly.

Ferd. von Mueller.
