Description
Briggs is writing to introduce Hooker to Mr Alleyne S. Archer. Briggs describes Archer as an 'enthusiast on the subject of plants' and a very 'valuable correspondent' if Hooker needs information on plants of the island [Barbados]. Briggs informs Hooker that Archer was the first person to start a nursery garden on the island and knows a lot about the culture of plants in Barbados. Page 1 of 3.
