Description

While sending a number of parcels to London for distribution, Rusby has taken the opportunity to send a small parcel of Bang's plants, which he has sent Rusby since the original distribution. Rusby believes that two or three of his new genera are among them. Rusby encloses an invoice, but Thiselton-Dyer may as well hold it until the next distribution in February. Mrs Rusby joins him in kindest regards to the Thiselton-Dyers, as well as to Sir Joseph [Hooker]. Ruth remembers them all very well and has told all her little friends how she used to ride in the 'Pee-wam-boo-way-tor' [perambulator] a word not used in the United States. Rusby finds that his four months of observation in Thiselton-Dyer's herbarium has, and will help, in a great many directions. They were sorry to leave without saying goodbye to Mr and Mrs Morris, who were absent when they left. Annotated as acknowledged with determinations of Cryptogams. Page 1 of 2.
