Summary:

Unable to provide Smith with specimens of the red-twigged lime, the original Kew plant of Smith's reference being dead some years and the substitute, having produced no fruit, is of doubtful accuracy, and herbariums of [Robert] Teesdale and the Gardens provide no examples. Sends specimens of New Holland plants collected by [Allan] Cunningham [(1791-1839), botanist and explorer] and parcel for Lady [Pleasance] Smith.
