Item Type: Document
From: Dickson, James
Sent from: London
To: Smith, Sir James Edward
Summary:

Has sent as many of Smith's desiderata as he could find. The 'Splachnum' Smith sent may be 'Splachnum purpum'. Would like to compare his lichens and mosses with the ones Smith received from his foreign friends as it is "the best way of being sure of plants".
