With reference to this office correspondence

consideration of the Federated Malay States Government

15 th September 1 925•

Asks that a request be made for the transferor

8 .M.S.Museums Herbarium to SingaporeT"

.

Sir,

I have the honour to request that you will communicate
with the F.M.S. Government with regard to the Herbarium of the
F.M.S. Museums.

2 . This Herbarium contains very valuable collections made
by Mr.L.Wray, some of which are unrepresented in the Gardens
Herbarium, more recent collections made by Mr.Ridley of which
we have no duplicates, all Mr.Henderson*s Collections, and some
other material.

5. Mr. Henderson is now working in the Garden's Herbarium,
and it would greatly assist and add to the accuracy of hid
work, as well as adding to the usefulness of the herbarium,
if the collections from Kuala Lumpur could be incorporated with
ours. The Results of Mr.Henderson's work and any other work
done in this Herbarium are not purely matters of local interest
but will be of benefit generally, as additions to our
knowledge of the Malayan Flora.

4. When Mr.Henderson left Kuala Lumpur it was decided to
ler the appointment of a botanist there lapse; the Museums
Herbarium is therefore now unused, and has no prospect of being
used, whereas in Singapore it would be of considerable value.

5. It was part of the recommendations of the Committee
which reported on botanical work in the Malay Peninsula that
the two herbaria should be united. (Malayan 9036/21) Though
there may be no prospect of an early adoption of the other
recommendations of that Committee, there is surely no reason
why the present proposal should not be approved.

£>. If the Government of the F,M.S. will notbconsent to the
gift of these collections, there may be no objestion to an

indefinite loan, each sheet to bear a distinctive label.

.

In this way the Herbarium would be available for reference and
for comparison with other material here, pending a decision
on the larger issues discussed by the Committee above mentioned

The Hon’ble

The Colonial Secretary.
