From Andrew Berry to Ferdinand von Mueller   16 Oct 1882

October 16th 1882

Sir,

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of the 14th instant noting errata in published lecture1 which I sincerely regret are so numerous.

My acknowledgments are also due for the valuable and interesting work entitled — "U. S. Geological and Geographical Survey of the Territories of Idaho and Wyoming, 1877" — donated by you to the Library of this Institution which I may say is both useful and acceptable and you may rest assured that the other volumes which you may be pleased to favor us with will be welcome additions to our (at present) rather scant Library.2

The Vice-President is at present away from Ballaarat but as soon as he returns I will convey to him your own courteous acknowledgments.

Believe me

Sir

Yours most Respectfully

Andw Berry

Acting Registrar

Baron F. Von Mueller K.C.M.G.
