My dear Baron,

I beg to acknowledge with many thanks the receipt of "Select Plants" & Wittstein's translated Work.

B76.13.03; Wittstein (1878), i.e. B78.06.09.

I was very near missing the as we have had a Steamer nearly lost here & bad weather which prevented me going out.

With best wishes, I am,

My dear Baron, yours truly

Charles H. Fawcett

P.S. Received also No. of "Fragmenta."

Presumably B79.01.01.

In great haste to catch Steamer.
