Prof. C. E. Bessey
My Dear Sir,

I have mislaid the
address of the agent of Holt & Company—the
firm that has published your work on
Botany. I wish to introduce that work as
a text book, and wish to get into communication
with the agent in order to get, if
possible introduction rates. I would be
much obliged if you can send me his
name and address in the enclosed card.

I have carefully examined your
work and find it better adapted
as a guide to the study of botany for one of my
advanced classes than any work before
the public.

I congratulate you on the preparation
of a Botany which you have made more
interesting than a novel.

Fraternally
[?] Aughey
