Dear Sir
I enclose another of No 9 from Barte Frere2 which you say is new & I have but two small single flower specimens left
My brother3 has made up his mind to thoroughly explore Mt Barte Frere next month & the result will I think be very satisfactory he is a splendid collector
Christy Palmerston does not expect anything sent him. A few lines from you thanking him for the plants would be appreciated by him
Yours sincerely
T. A. Gulliver
