Melbourne bot. Garden,
17/8/71
Sir
I have the honor to inform you, that the map, referred to in your communication of the 10th inst.1 has not yet reached me, thinking it but right to state this, as it might appear that I had delayed in giving effect to your instructions regarding the sand-plantations, intended at Point Nepean.2
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
your obedient servant
Ferd. von Mueller,
Direct. botan. Garden.
The honorable the Chief Secretary
