University, July 18, 1880,
Prof C. E. Bessey,
Dear Sir,–

I have just returned
from a trip to the north shore
of L. Superior, & find your letter
of the 5th [just?] awaiting me.
I shall esteem it a great favor
to receive a copy of your
work on Botany, and when it
comes to hand I will gladly
give you my impressions concerning
it.

I am very respectfully yours,
E. S. [Bastin?]
