No.

[Petals stamen?], [?], Gray,
[Kingsman?] & Peach spring.
N. Ariz.

Legit J. G. Lemmon and wife, May & June, 1886.
Oakland, California.

We start again on our
visual exploration of Ariz.
in a few days, at first in
a sparsely occupied section of
S. Cal, then on to Central
Arizona.

I wish the package for you contained
more of our new things
but the misfortune is that often
the new thing is also very scarce.
Of some we had only a single
duplicate. but others will supply
them no doubt, soon.

For this small favor, you
have kindly sent us the "Naturalist"
all this time. I pray
you [answer?] please accept our
thanks and stop the paper!

I do not like to receive what
I cannot pay for.

Mrs Lemmon is busy painting
"Wild flowers of Cal," but stops long
enough to chat pleasantly of you
and to send message of warm
regards—with mine—to you.

Hurriedly,
Yours,
J. G. Lemmon.
