April 7th /84

To Baron Von Mueller

Sir

I am sending you a flower that I think might be of some interest to you, it is new to us.

I sent you some specimens some time back, and wrote a note, which I could not find when taking them to post, I thought I might have put it in with the parcle2 in mistake, I hope you received them all right.

Yours Sincerely

Edith Thornton
