From Ferdinand von Mueller to Annie Walker   2 May 1893

2/5/93.

You do me far too much honor, dear Miss Walker, but I need not assure you, that I feel proud of your attaching so much value to the lithogram.1 If you find on return to your home, that I can further aid you in bringing your admirable painted drawings to substantial recognition, then command my attention in this respect unhesitatingly.

Adieu!

Ferd von Mueller
