Dear Sir:

Your letter of the 5th July, informing me that your publishers, [Mesors?] [?] + Co., [???] quarters to send me a copy of your Botany, was duly [good?]. [After?] days ago I received from them a specimen sheet only. Such offers as yours dont come every day and I [thot?] I would write you regarding it.

Resp. Yours,
[Mr?] A. [Buckhaus?]
