To Graham Berry   21 March 1884

Melbourne,

21. March 1884.

The honorable Graham Berry, M.L.A., Chief Secretary &c

 

Sir,

I have the honor to inform you, that I have received one hundred copies of the 9th Decade of the Eucalyptography1 from the Gov. Printing Office in accordance with former arrangements; but as new regulations are now in force, requiring distributions of Gov. Publications to be made through the Office of the hon. the Premier, I would beg for your instructions in this case.

Thinking that it may facilitate the departmental distribution, I have the honor to submit a list of 93 Recipients, who would be fairly entitled to this new decade of the Eucalyptography in interchange for publications received from them; further the names of seven proposed recipients are mentioned, from whom the Department has important botanic Collections. I presume it will devolve on me, to send the 100 Copies to the office of hon the Premier, if the subjoined list is approved of.2

I have the honor to be,

Sir, your obedient servant

Ferd von Mueller.
