I send also a book of specimens Shaw sent me some time ago and would like you to look over them. I have numbered them and you can let me know by the numbers if anything particular & Shaw would like the names very much
perhaps you will kindly oblige

MS found with a specimen of Calanthe triplicata (MEL 2258720). Roberts identified as author from the initials and the similarity of the handwriting to that in other letters from Roberts. MS dated approximately on the basis of J. Roberts to M, 9 September 1881 and J. Roberts to M, 26 November 1881, in which Roberts refers to a Mr Shaw from Port Denison, Qld, who had sent him some orchids.
