To William Thiselton-Dyer   25 June 1893

25/6/93.1

 
 

Should you, dear Dr Dyer, and your father in law2 not receive many letters from me during the second half of this year, will you kindly understand, that I must concentrate as much time as ever possible on the supplemental volume,3 so that a portion of it may yet appear in 1893. I intend to publish the volume in parts,4 just as Sir Joseph does with the Flora of British India.5

Always regardfully

your

Ferd. von Mueller
