Sir

I beg to inform you that I have recently received from M^r Plant of Natal a small packet of seeds, the list of which I enclose, which I am desirous of selling on his a/c, the price of the parcel which must be sold entire is £10 – they seem to have arrived in most excellent condition. – I am induced to write you or offer them to you from the conversation I had with you when you called on me last Aug^t – How do the Bulbs turn out which you purchased –

An early reply will oblige –

Y^rs faithfully

Samuel Stevens
