Dear Professor Bessey.

Pardon my delay in
reporting that I saw the President about
the Bulletins for Prof Arthur. I spok to
Prof H[?] the next day after your note
and he said the copies had already been
sent. He however would look the matter up
and send the copies if he was mistaken.
In my work in the herbarium I have
as yet found only a note book marked
"Lectures in Com. Anatomy." These I will send
you with pleasure if you desire.

It is hardly necessary for me to
say that I found the missing [fascicles?]
of algae. I have not been able to look
through the packages of plants in the case
when I found the above mentioned [fascicles?].

I find a pile of genus covers under
– or on the lowest shelf of the book rack near [?]
