Dear Dr Hooker
His Excellency Governor Carey has permitted me to send in his despatch bag a parcel of seeds, 328 species. Many must be new to you. They are all harvested here last autumn. Will you kindly1 the smaller parcel to Prof Balfour. I further sent you 52 sp. seeds from North East & West Australia.
Yr
Ferd Mueller
I seek to augment the species in my Querce[tum]
