From Harrison William Weir   7 May 1869

Dear Sir

I have raised some hundreds of daisies from seed this last year. I send you some curious results— the green ones always remain green. They are all from different roots, and shew about the same stage of growth

I heard of a tame Rabbit the other day that had 18 young at a birth— I have one with 11 all doing well— the 18 were also all brought.— the greatest number wild Rabbits have as far as I can learn is 6.¹

In greatest haste | Yours Very Truly | Harrison Weir
