My dear Sir

Mr. Foote is
very interesting. I[?] [?]
afraid that the [Sun bloom?]
would turn out to be an
introduced species, since
there are so many
foreign plants brought to
our state every year on
ships' ballast. One of
the [Day?] Island [Station?],
however, was pretty far
inland. Its discovery
settles the fact that the
plant is an American.
You have wished that
I made a call in
the last [?] for
plant names. No one
seems to care about
