shall have some particular requests
presently.

Plates of Pl. [illegible] have been
much delayed, and are not done yet
Perhaps I can send them by mail, but it
will be a pity to fold them

You will receive by the time you get
this my parcel by the hand of Mr [illegible].
with notes of the [work?] & a specimen of Lap=
hamia

In haste
Yours truly
Asa Gray
