Copy of dictated letter again.1
Dear Miss King,
I am greatly beholden to you about your communicating with Mr Fletcher2 and all other exertions. I wrote the preliminary article this afternoon and it will be posted to Mr Fletcher in the morning.3 The essay can be extended when later in the season the fruit of B. floribunda can in full ripeness be obtained. Can I reckon in your kindness in this also.
With regardful remembrance
your
Ferd. von Mueller4
Boronia floribunda
