To Joseph Hooker 14 March 1860

My dear Joseph

Java - 16.10.0

374 Borneo - 7.

23.17.0

this cuts a hole into the 30£ for the current year - but I generally contrive much to exceed my Museum allowance. C. Doorne shall poison & glue them all forthwith.

They were talking at Cambridge about accumulating resources - & having money in hand - & hoping some [?] to set to work about Museums etc. Two or three pamphlets had appeared more or less in favour of the new scheme of degrees for Nat.S.Tripos. Grave's other [illeg.] appears to have got over its difficulties. Mr Leathes (his F.in Law) had 1207 Trees mostly fine ones blown down at Herringfleet!

Yrs affy
