Illinois Industrial University,
Champaign, Ills., July 31 1880

Professor C. E. Bessey,
Dear Sir:

I have received a circular
from Holt & Co. describing your book, but the
latter has not arrived. Do they answer your
request in this way? I shall be much pleased
to examine and report to you in case the
book is sent.

Very truly Yours
L. J. Burrill

P. S. I have been making some, [?], interesting
investigations upon the prevailing "[?]light" of pear and
apple trees, proving conclusively the so called "fire-
[?]light" of pears is identical with the "[?] flight" of
apple, and establishing a new theory of disease
in plants. Shall write the matter up soon.
L. J. B.
