From Ferdinand von Mueller to Robert Wadsworth   13 May 1885

13/5/85

When at Gov House this day, dear Mr Wadsworth, I learnt incidentally, that his Excellency has never seen or received yet a copy of my Eucalyptography, so I learned in conversation with Lady Loch.1 As that work is an important one for so many practical purposes, concerning our colony, perhaps you could kindly arrange that the Governor obtains a copy, — bound ones being available now. I feel sure the hon. the Premier would grant the request.

Regardfully

your

Ferd. von Mueller2

Wadsworth transferred the matter to the Secretary to the Premier, E. Thomas. Thomas noted on 15 May: 'Look into this: I distinctly remember a presenta[tio]n being authorized'. On 1 June it was noted: 'His Excellency has already received a copy'.
