Summary:
He has been constantly unwell since last seeing Smith; wishes for Smith to superintend the printing his Indian Flora ["Flora Indica"], under Smith's "own man" Taylor. Has had some discussion with [Robert] Brown on subject; they thought it best to translate the generic and specific characters into Latin and leave the rest in English; he is unable to take any active part in it.
