To the Honorable Secretary of Agriculture,

Washington, D. C.,

Dear Sir,-

I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of a collection of specimens sent from the botanical Division of the Department of Agriculture for deposit in the herbarium of this University.

Permit me to thank you for the same and to assure you that the specimens will be at once placed in the collection, where they will be accessible for study and reference.

Very truly yours,
Charles E. Bessey
