Unsure if the packet of dried plants he sent Smith March [1804] has reached England yet. Sending another small collection of plants, and if and when he is settled as a missionary here he will send for his herbarium and be more forthcoming with specimens. Sending drawing and description [both extant] of 'Polyandria' ['Magnoliaceae'], the drawing is by [Elizabeth Gwillim (1763-1807)], wife of Sir Henry Gwillim, Justice of the Supreme Court of Jurisdiction at Madras; Lady Gwillim says she has sent a living plant to England. Sorry Smith's parcel to him of 1802 was lost.

Description of 'Polyandria enneagynia' [see RelatedMaterial below for drawing].

[This letter is marked "Duplicate", sent with Rottler's letter of 15 October 1807, see RelatedMaterial below]

He has only just received Smith's letter of 30 April 1800 and his "Specimen of the botany of New Holland", which he had long given up ever receiving. Encloses duplicate of his letter of [14] October [1806], which accompanied a parcel of plants. Received [Nathaniel] Kindersley's letter of 1 May 1806, will reply when chest of books for female asylum arrives.

[Label attached to letter:] "'Tetracera sarmentosa' 83) Vahl Delima Lin.".

Encloses duplicate of letter he sent Smith in March [1807] [extant], and packet of plants; wishes to know Smith's opinion of this and the packet he sent October 1806. Asks if his new genus 'Gwillimia' has been accepted.

Received Smith's letter of 30 April 1800 together with Smith's "publications and plants of New Holland", had given up expecting them. Encloses a duplicate of his previous letter of 14 October 1806, which accompanies a parcel of plants [see RelatedMaterial below]. Received Mr Kindersley's letter, shall reply when books for the female asylum arrive.

[This letter is marked as a duplicate; Rottler's letter of 3 March 1807 [see RelatedMaterial below] mentions his sending a copy of this letter to Smith.]

Encloses duplicate of letter he sent 2 September 1805 [see RelatedMaterial]. Sending another small collection of plants, some of which are from Mysore and Ceylon, including: 'Ophiorhiza mungos'; believes one of the specimens is a new tree genus 'Galari maram', describes it; thinks two of the Ceylon plants are currently undescribed. Hopes Smith has received the "Gullimia" [drawing of a 'Polyandria by Elizabeth Gwillim, wife of Sir Henry Gwillim, Justice of the Supreme Court of Jurisdiction at Madras] and other dried specimens he sent earlier in the year.
