Melbourne 14/11/63.
My dear Miss Euphemia,
I went on Thursday morning to the Garden bridge, on the Yarra and waited from 10 til ½ past 10, but as you did not come I anticipated that you must have been prevented to visit the Gardens, as on the two former occasions, when I waited for you about an hour each time. I walked then over to my deer park,1 where the deer were just to be caught for liberation and searched for you afterwards through the gardens from 11 to 12.
I need scarcely assure you, that I shall gladly attend on you on Tuesday say at 10 in the morning, but should unforeseen circumstances prevent me from being at the bridge, I will ask Mr Heyne to conduct you around.
With sincere regards
yours
Ferd. Mueller.
In the so-called Richmond Paddock on the north side of the Yarra River.
