Sent from: London
To: Smith, Sir James Edward
Summary:

At Smith's request sent [Joseph] Woods [(1776-1864)] specimens of roses. Would have liked to have seen the proofs of Smith's work on 'Rosa' [probably for "English flora"], hopes it settles all the points between Woods, [John] Lindley [(1799-1865)], and others. Hears of a new work on 'Rubus' [Weihe's "Rubi Germanici" (1822-1827)], expects the genus to be "divided very much".
Remarks on 'Rosa' specimens.
