Den beigefügten kurzen Brief, edler Freund, erhielt ich von Miss Hussey gerade wie ich ihn sende, ohne Couvert, nachdem sie durch mich Ihr Memorandum erhalten hatte. Ich sende die wenigen vermeintlichen neuen Exemplare von Pachyglossum in einem separt1 Päckchen.
Stets Sie ehrend

I received the enclosed short letter,2 noble friend, from Miss Hussey just as I send it without envelope after she had received your memorandum through me. I am sending the few supposed new specimens of Pachyglossum in a separate little parcel.
Always honouring you

Pachyglossum
separaten?
Agardh's correspondence archive includes a letter from Jessie L. Hussey dated Port Elliot 16 June 1895, evidently the one enclosed:
'To Professor Agardh
Lund
Dear Sir
Your Memorandum of May 3rd has been duly received by me. I am very sorry to have made a mistake in my notice of the alga "Pachyglossum Husseyanum"
By same mail I send more specimens, amongst which I trust you will find the true plant, when I shall be glad if you kindly return a small specimen, so that I may compare it with my original specimen no 206. I have not time to study the algs scientically [sic] at present, but will observe them more carefully in future.
I am pleased to know you have found plants in my collection which interest you.'
She wrote again to explain the error in naming Pachyglossum Husseyanum in J. Hussey to J. Agardh, 4 October 1895 (in this edition as M95-10-04).
