5 August

Dated to 1885 on account of the position of the MS in the file and because M's response dated 5 August 1885 refers to specimens received 'this day'.

My dear Baron

Will you let me introduce Mr Peyton Jones, an officer of this Department who will submit, for your opinion, two samples of timber from Gippsland.

Vic.

I shall esteem it a favor if you will examine them.

Yours truly,

Robt Watson
