W III 3:1

The last [trip?] was a success --
let not this damp your ardour
or lessen your energy -- to rest
on reputation means certain
failure.

In addition to [s]the[/s] the sums of
money provided before sailing
the following sums will be to
your credit at the address you
have given on the dates named.
It is much to be desired that
these sums or if possible less
cover the cost of the trip --
but if not you x give ample
notice

June 1st 1903 [British pound symbol?]200
June 1st 1904 [British pound symbol?]200
June 1st .. [British pound symbol?]200
June 1st .. [British pound symbol?]100

Everything obtained is to be
sent to Chelsea.
Write J. Veitch [?] full details --
as before

Do not write details on plant work
to your friends -- the most friendly
actions of friends are often harmful --
keep a complete diary, [s]but[\s] and retain your
knowledge for your own publication
