From Ferdinand von Mueller to Léon Dejardin   3 Mar 1893

Melbourne, 3/3/93.

Chevalier De Jardin,

Consul General for France &c

Herewith, dear Chev. Dejardin, I beg to send a small lot of seeds as a commencement of what is required for Tunis by the Government, which you so worthily represent.1 I thought it better, to send off, what I have hitherto caused freshly to be gathered, than wait any longer with contributing, as it may be still some time, before the West-Australian seeds arrive, but I hope to be able, to forward to you further various supplies at short intervals.

With regardful remembrance your

Ferd. von Mueller

See M to L. Dejardin, 8 February 1893.
