Dear Sir
I think that I have sent you the Eucalyptus at last as the leaves look like it – if it is the right one please let me know and then I will tell you where it is growing and what kind of soil it is on
with kind respect
your obedient servant
Mary McHard
to Baron F Von Mueller
I have sent the cups & seeds
