Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew: JDH/2/22/1/1 f.72
Summary:

JDH lists some things he has found lying in the RBG Kew herbarium for Gray: newspapers, a letter from Baird about a bronze statue of Henry, a copy of C. E. Norton's Church Building in the Middle Ages, & a specimen of Castanea vesca from Martindale with female inflorences imitating male ones. Charles Darwin's "Movements of Plants" is out but JDH thinks that ARW's Island Life is the best natural history book of the season. Miles Joseph Berkeley & his daughter have been staying with the Hooker's but left early as he had an attack of gout. Berkeley has suffered with many ailments throughout his life, he is now 78. Hyacinth Hooker is organising Miss Shepard's rooms.
