would you be so situated next summer that
you could give two or three weeks time to a
course in botany in such a school?

I wish if there be the slightest possibility
of your finding the time that I could see you.
Can you not accept this invitation of the
Minn. Acad. of Science to [rend?] a paper
here in Jan'y next & then the matter might
be talked over very fully. I have stated this as
that the invitation of the [deal?] had been sent you.
I do not know as such is the fact.

Hoping to hear a free expression from you
upon this matter of a Summer School.

I remain
Sincerely Yours
C. W. Hall
