Description
[Associated with folio 153/359] Johnson presents her compliments to Hooker and begs to inform him that her husband, Colonel W.R. Johnson, has arrived from India paralysed and speechless. Amongst his luggage she found a case of orchids, which she directed her agents to send to RBG Kew. She is now sending a packet of seeds she found today. Should Colonel Johnson recover, she feels that Hooker will allow him to have anything he may wish for back again. Page 1 of 3.
