To William Henry Fox Talbot August 1836

Sir,

If I am not taking too great a liberty might I beg for another specimen of your Yellow pink - in order to get a drawing made of it for a new periodical which is to appear next month & to wch. I have promised to be an occasional contributor. I have shewn the other specimens to several botanists who are all unacquainted with it. A few with leaves on a stalk wd. be acceptable with the specimen. I can call for it at any place where you may be able to leave it most conveniently

Yrs very faithfully

J. S. Henslow
