My dear Dr Vasey

I mail you a grass
toay from Chase Co neb
(near Colorado state line).
It is something like a sunted
[Poa pratencii?]. It resembles
[Poa eateni?] in description,
but I have no spms. of that species.
It bears some resemblance to
P. [flexaera?], and is [?]
a little like P. [compressa?].
But it does not appear
to be any one of them.
The specimen [was?] handed
to me by a gentleman who
had pulled it up some time
