Description
Rand thanks Thiselton-Dyer for his letter of 1 Jan and the two cuttings of Stapelia gigantea. He is happy to say he now has two fine plants.

Captain Bisson will either send the boxes on arrival or notify Thiselton-Dyer where they are to be found. Page contains notes in another hand listing the specimen numbers of the orchids for identification and their names. Page 1 of 1.
