My Dear Bessey:

The copy of your new
work on Botany is at hand for
which please accept my hearty
thanks. I have not read it yet,
of course, but in looking it over
coming home on the [cars?] I concluded
you had made a very excellent
work and one that has been needed
by our college and students in Botany
generally. I am much obliged
to you for honoring me with a
mention in your preface.

Yours very Truly
Byron D. Halsted
