To William Baxter   6 June 1837

Dear Sir

Allow me to thank you for the proposed compliment which you offer to pay me, & for which I shall feel duly sensible. I think the fewer titles after ones name the better & would suggest MA. F.L.S. as quite enough – in the way that Dr Hooker has dedicated the 1 ^st Vol of the Companion to the Botan: Mag & to me – I hope to reside at Cholsey for July & August, & to pay Oxford a visit during my stay when I trust I shall have the pleasure of seeing you

Yr Very truly | J S. Henslow

Mr Baxter | Botanic Garden | Oxford
