Dear Baron von Mueller.
In the hurry of packing I have time only to make into a parcel without mounting them
a few small specimens of plants which have during the past year come under my notice
for the
first time
— which I have collected with the intention of sending them to you. I shall be pleased
to hear whether they are rare, in other localities as they are in this. I go to Adelaide
directly where my address will be c/o
A von Treuer Esqre
Grenfell Street
Adelaide
I go to Melbourne in January where my address will be
Athenaeum Club
Collins Street
Melbourne
With kind regards. In haste
Believe me
Yours faithfully
Frederic Bonney
