Dear Dr. Bessey,

Many thanks for your good photo, which was duly received. I was sorry not to see you at Washington this summer. I had not attended since the Buffalo meeting. I have been something of a rambler since I saw you having been in all the states but 8. Last Winter I was in Florida and Cuba and I am literally buried in Specimens of cryptogams. Sometimes I think I will never emerge but try to keep my head above them.

Yours sincerely
L. M. Underwood.
