Allow me to say, dear Mr Thomas, that the quarto-work on the Salsolaceous plants
is now ready as far as to the sixth decade inclusive, so that it would be desirable,
to send it out soon through the public Library. Will you with your usual attentiveness
place the list of proposed recipients
before the Prime Minister for his views on the subject.

Thomas, as Secretary to the Premier, referred this to Thomas Bride, Librarian of the
Public Library, who replied on 7 May 1891 that 'the works have been distributed' according
to the list of recipients given to him.
Regardfully your
Ferd. von Mueller.
