My Dear Dr. Bessey,

Your kind favor from the 24th is this hour received. I am much obliged to you for remembering me. The College will gladly take the specimens, all you have at the rate (3 cents per species) named. Send then when convenient and in the way which best.

Tomorrow I start for Chicago to meet my family. I have had a long and lonesome sort of a spring here all by myself. I hope you are all well We should like to have you all make us a visit at your earliest convenience.

Yours very truly,

B. D. Halsted
