Ballina.1

28 Feby 79

My dear Baron,

I beg to acknowledge with many thanks the receipt of "Select Plants" & Wittstein's translated Work.2 I was very near missing the Halfordia as we have had a Steamer nearly lost here & bad weather which prevented me going out.

With best wishes, I am,

My dear Baron, yours truly

Charles H. Fawcett

P.S. Received also No. of "Fragmenta."3 In great haste to catch Steamer.

Halfordia

NSW.

B76.13.03; Wittstein (1878), i.e. B78.06.09.

Presumably B79.01.01.

MS found with a specimen of Halfordia kendack (MEL 720023).
