From Ferdinand von Mueller to James Hector   24 May 1865

24/5/65.

Dear Dr Hector

It does not appear that any communication from you has reached the Ladies Leichhardt Search Committee.1 I merely mention this in case your letter should have been lost.

Regardfully

yr

Ferd Mueller2

Hector had apparently agreed to contribute to the expedition; see M to J. Hector, 22 May 1865.

MS annotation probably by Hector: 'Ansd'. Letter not found.
