T. R. Wilson Esqr,

Undersecretary.

Sir

I have the honor to ask permission that I may supply the "educational Collection of dried plants" (now at my office) in one set to the Maryborough-School of Mines and Industries, which Institution is desirous to obtain the series of these specimens.

The Chief Secretary, A. Deakin, approved M's request on 25 February 1889. Two days later M returned the file 'with best thanks'.

I have the honor to be,

Sir, your obed. servant

Ferd. von Mueller,

Gov. Botanist.
