Dear Baron von Mueller
I have only time to write a few lines to say that I send some flowers & buds of the Eucalyptus you require.2 They were gathered by me at some distance from here and very badly pressed as I had no means of doing so properly I hope however they will serve your purpose.3
You will ere long receive some specimens of the marine grass the Dugong feeds on as I have written to the Cardwell4 fisherman to send you some.5
With kind regards & in great haste
Sincerely Yours
Brab. R Stafford
