Mr. Watson promised to prepare a review of botanical
[?] in America for 1879, but could not
[prepare?] his promise. Could you prepare an article
for the [?] no. of 8-10 [papers?]? I will offer you
what I did him + for which he originally agreed
to prepare the article [?]$10,00. If so then send
the [?] to me by Sept. 5th or 18th if you can. If you
havent time to get it [ready?] for [Sept.?] can you do
the same for the [?] Naturalist. Minor
notes + papers of [course?] could not be referred to in
such an article – only such work as has [?]
added to the sum of American botanical knowledge
during 1879.
I hope your Botany will prove a
financial success, as it will scientifically. I
am gratified to see a number of references
to papers originally published in the Naturalist.
I think this volume (XIV) contains a goodly number of
botanical papers of importance. We need more contributions
of short notes. Hoping you will feel willing + able to
cooperate with [?] + myself in editing the journal, [I am?],
Yours most truly,
