Summary:

Is writing an article on Epping Forest, wants information on its botany; could Carruthers refer him to accounts of it or lists of its plants esp. trees and bog plants, or to local botanist or anyone who has worked at the Essex flora. Shall be glad of a few lines of testimonial from you [stress on practical experience of planting & made special study of the subject "as I hear that being "scientific" is my greatest danger with the committee!"] PS Asa Gray has just sent ARW his delightful lecture on the Temperate Forests which ARW is going to use largely in his paper. [ARW's article on Epping Forest appeared in the November 1878 issue of the Fortnightly Review].
