Dear Sir

In a letter from Bertoloni 1 he asks me for English Specimens of the following plants, some of which are very common, but as I have no duplicates of English plants, perhaps you could supply him – in that case I would send them to him as from you, & he would be happy to send in return some good Italian or Sicilian plants. – Have you see the first 3 nos of his flora Italica? 2

Believe me to remain Yours most truly
H. F. Talbot

My address is 31 Sackville St 3
