1/9/87.

I find, dear Mr. Wilson, that the numbering of the plants of the "Key I",

B88.11.02.

according to the dichotomous method, will still take more than one day, even if urgent other departmental work should not intervene. It seems therefore best, to wait with the printing-commencement til the beginning of next week, so that I will bring the manuscript on Monday morning to you.

See M to A. Deakin, 28 July 1887.

Regardfully your

Ferd. von Mueller.

I hope the whole printing will be done in September.
