At last, dear Mr Ramsay, I have found the mislaid rushes from N.Z. I return them now; to examine them closely for specific naming it will be necessary to get full specimens with roots.
Please telegraph to me, should a chance arise of a war-ship going to New Guinea or some other fair opportunity
Regardfully
Ferd. von Mueller
