Summary:

Looking forward to Smith's visit. Thanks for third volume of "English Flora"; wonders how many sheets of paper it took Smith considering [Thomas] Martyn wrote 20,000 sheets in compiling [Philip] Miller's "Gardener's Dictionary", hopes he is not overworking himself to finish it. Compliments to [Thomas Furly] and [Edward] Forster.
