Honored Sir
My engagement in almost any spare-hours for finishing the “Key to the syst. of Vict. plants”1 has left me all through 1887 but little time for scientific work, beyond such as is connected with the routine-duties of my Department, but I hope in 1888 to be able, to contribute to your important volumes.
With regardful remembrance
your
Ferd. von Mueller2
