Hopes Smith received last letter of 21 January 1815, has had no news of him except for [Aylmer Bourke] Lambert mentioning having seen "Eclogae" at Smith's house. Hunnermann has brought the last fasciculus of [Nikolaus von Jacquin's] "Stapeliae" for Sir Joseph Banks and Lambert, hopes Smith will not think he has gone "backward" in the direction of their artists. Has arranged a new method of conveying books to Vienna, assuming the "derangement" of the affairs of Messrs White has prevented Smith from sending his promised books. Uses a copy of the "English Encyclopedia" [Rees' "Cyclopedia" to which Smith contributed botanical articles], wishes that the work's plan allowed Smith to complete the genera with all their species. Sending ninth and tenth fascicules of his "Eclogae" and synopsis of his father's "Stapeliae" soon.
