Friend Bessey,

In a few days I
will mail to you the choice
selection of plants that have
come to your [share?] as we
have gone through the immense
harvest of the two years
ago in northern Arizona.

This last season, of course,
we did no exploring being at
the N. C. Ex. and [to?/the?] rest off,
we spent the remainder of the
season in the East.

The [sic.] plants that
have fallen to your share are
few in number — only a few
over a hundred — but I trust
they will be no less welcome
to your herbarium.
This must make you feel
encourages since the fire, and
tornado losses.
