Will you do me the favor, dear Dr Hector, to support the Candidature of the Rev. Jul. Ten. Woods at the R. S.2 of England by your signature, and kindly send on the paper to Dr von Haast?3
It is very kind of you to say, that you will interest yourself about a reissue of my volume on "select plants" in N.Z., where such a work ought to be of great value to new settlers & other colonist.4 The publication ought not to interfere with any others there, that may be contemplated, as my work is one of wide general scope and cosmopolitan tendencies
Regardfully your
Ferd von Mueller
I believe you & Haast are the only FRS in NZ. Is it so?5
