Professor Bessey
Dr Sir,

Your note came today.
In reply: I think that every
thing is or will be provided for
before July 5 that needs to be
arranged & can be arranged
by us. I will try & get you an
agreeable boarding place.

[Bottles?], [asparagus?], [reagents?]
[&c?] will be had. As for apparatus
we have [White Line?] [?]
[Shellac?] branches / section cutter
(but the knife is poor) 2 turn tables
glass slides, cover glasses [&c?].
We have only three or four [?]

[2]

What other apparatus you will
need perhaps you had better
bring for it is now late to order.
I understand you would bring
12 Comp'd microscopes when
we [sic.]advertised 25 to be
for use, as we have 10 in lab'y
& 3 others available in case of
need. The prospect is good for
a fair attendance.

If you will tell me on which
road you [prepared?/proposed?] to come I
will meet you at the depot.

Yours tuly
C. W. Hall
