To His Excellency Baron Von Mueller

Dear Sir

I received the enclosed lately from Honolulu (Hawaii) and should like if you could furnish me with the botanical name. I also received a few of the blue seeds of the traveller's joy which if you have not any, I could let you have one or two. I have always wished to procure one of the leaves of the lattice work plant of Madagascar I suppose you have not a spare one.

I am

Yours respectfully

(Mrs) Agnes F. Kenyon
