Botanic Gardens
26 August 1868
Sir
I have the honor to solicit that you will be pleased to grant permission that the various improvements and additional works carried out in this establishment since the issue of my last Report, as shown on a Sketch-Plan drawn in this Office may be added to the lithographed plan previously published, a copy of which is appended, as it appears that the stone containing the lithographic drawing of the latter has been preserved so that the additions can be made at a trifling expense, which will, including that for printing 1000 copies not exceed thirteen pounds Sterlg., such expenditure to be charged to the Vote for publishing Works. It was found that the photolithographic process was not well applicable for the above work.1
I have the honor to be
Sir
your very obedient
Ferd. Mueller.
