Altho' you kindly said that there was time for some months for sundry additions to the Estimates, I have thought that perhaps, to simplify matters, the £60.9 might be recovered by adding the words "including arrears" after the item of £330.- miscellaneous votes of Gov Botanist on the ordinary estimates for the coming year. Perhaps however that can not be done; but then at all events you have my letter, should a favorable opportunity arise to use it.
Regardfully your
Ferd. von Mueller.
