For various reasons I have delayed answerinp
your .letter of a north, ay o', not the least of which has the fact
that I have "been very "buoy, and also the ”yrip;e' T .

First ‘ wish to thank you for the reprist of the Bryoloylst
article vh^ch I hav e lust received.

"n your letter you speak o ' some fruitinp ophapnms macropliyllum
that an supposed. to have collect eel. T don't know what you

mean, as I have never, so far as I can recall, collected that
species'in fruit.

Piirinp your absence In fur op c I sent paste a number of ry
dphapna to ‘‘amst orf, at his special request , but from menoral
appearances he has mireu labels so that I am still uncertain a", out
some of those sort to him. I stili have a pool many thud; are
unnamed, anh. I shall be' only too nlsd to ’'.ave you look then over,
and even those that h'.k has naraedy if you wish. I' way send tie'"
ir. small packets, as J ban ■■on acres-" f cm, unless "sou prefer to
have the whole at once.

erf. s. when you t tine you nay feel like publishing ar
Addendum to your former ipTirpnur list in Hlnulora, fol lowing the
custom of others- of o here already mull shed lists. That would be

k- f .k 1 ' t ‘k- ' f . - ;: y‘ • ; i.. i yk . ; • ■ ' -» ■ ' ' ’ s

I certainly hope .-you vh 11 feel "life taehslinp r one at for noon

Dr. A. LeBoy Andrews,

324 College Ave.,

Ithaca, II. Y,

Dear Dr. Andrews:

I inclose the only stem of the Sphagnum macro-
phyllum from Yaine that I possess. It was prowing amongst
a lot of other Sphagna, and it was not toticed until I hepun
to overhaul the material to dry it. It was collected, as I
recall it now, while on a sort of picnic trip where most of the
collecting had to he done hy grabbing a quantity of stuff and
rushinr on so as not to delay the party. I have never been
back to the place since.

Then you return it please send it by first class mall
as that is about the only kind that seems to come through on
time during the Christmas rush.

Dear Sir :

The coming iSth day of November marks Dr. Asa
Gray’s seventy-fifth birthday. It seems a fitting time for
the botanists of North America to join in some token of their
esteem and good wishes for one who lias done so much towards
the study and classification of the flowering plants and the gen¬
eral advancement of the botany of this country. Many memorials
have been presented to Dr. Gray but most of them have come
from near and personal friends. The idea of this one originates
with those further away.

It is not decided what form this memorial will take, and we
should be glad to receive any suggestions. The intrinsic value
of it will, of course, be of least account in the eyes of the recipi¬
ent; its value will depend chiefly upon the number who unite in
the offering.

Will you join with other botanists in sending such a
token to Dr. Gray? If so, send at once whatever you wish
to contribute — 25c., 50c.. $1, $5, any sum you please—to
Charles R. Barnes, 14 Buckingham St., Cambridge, Mass.,

who will return receipt if desired. Please also enclose your
card with some sentiment suitable to the day inscribed thereon.
This will accompany the gift.

In order that this matter may not reach the public prints be
kind enough to say nothing about it.

The time is very short ; will you give this your immediate
attention and make a reply of some kind ?

Sincerely yours,

J. C. Arthur,
C. R. Barnes,
J. M. Corn. ter

Cambridge, Mass.,

November 20, 1885.

The self-appointed committee who undertook the collection of funds for a birthday token
to Dr. Asa Gray, desire to report their action.

Circulars were sent to all botanists whose addresses we could obtain in the very limited time
at our command. Doubtless many were omitted who would have been glad to contribute. All
such omissions must be ascribed to the absolute necessity for haste.

By the 31st of October the number of replies received, and the amount contributed, seemed
to indicate that about $300.00 would be in hand before the iSth of November. Accordingly
Messrs. Bigelow, Kennard & Co. of Boston, were asked to prepare a design for a vase of solid
silver, with appropriate floral decoration, whose cost should not exceed $300. The design was
submitted on Nov. 3, and after consultation with as many as possible at Cambridge, was accepted
with slight modifications. The vase with its pedestal was completed Tuesday night and presented
without formality on Wednesday morning, the 18th inst. The cards which accompanied the sub¬
scriptions were placed on a silver tray and presented as the greetings of those who embodied their
good will in the vase.

A full description of the vase, with illustrations of both sides, will be published in the December
number of the Botanical Gazette, a copy of which will be sent to you. The January number
will contain a portrait and biographical sketch of Dr. Gray, together with some of the poems,
congiatulatoiy addiesses, etc., which were sent on his birthday. Orders for this number (20c.
per copy) should be sent early to John M. Coulter, Crawfordsville, Indiana.

Receipts and expenditures have been as follows :

By 180 cash subscriptions
To printing, postage and envelopes
To discount on Canadian money
To car fare, six special trips
To vase and card plate
To printing, postage and envelopes

J. Franklin Collins,

10 Carroll st.,Providence,R.I.

My dear sir:--

I fear that you have ere this given up all hope of hearing
from me regarding the mosses you sent me long ago for naming. I look¬
ed over about half of them last summer,and was then compelled to defer
the study of the rest by the receipt of more urgent collections. A
few days ago I finished all but some of the Hypna. Now I devote

all my spare time to elaborating a collection by Dr. R&ll along the
line of the Northern Pacific for the herbarium of the National(German)
School of Forestry at Zftschen. As this work will take several months
I will not delay sending the names of those I have determined,and re¬
turning specimens of those which I have not yet examined.

Mr.J.F.Collins,Providence,R.I.

My dear sir:-- I find your letter awaiting me after a brief
absence. In reply I have to say that the price of Husnot’s Musco-
logia Gallica is 5 fr.per livraison. As there are 14 of these parts
the total cost is 70 fr. (See Bot.Gaz.20:85. 1895.) Whether there'
is any reduction when all are bou, ht at once I am not able to say.

The only journal devoted exclusively to the mosses is Ilusnot’s
Revue Bryologique,most of the articles in which are printed in French
though occasionally one in English appears. I am not aware that Wore -
any English journal exists in which more than an occasional article
on mosses appears (as in the Bot.Gaz.). Hedwigia is devoted to the
cryptogams in general and has most of the moss literature appearing
in German journals,though occasional papers appear in the other general
periodicals. Revue Bryologique is published by Th.Husnot,Cahan,par
Athis,0rne,France at 5 fr. (Ithink) per year. Hedwigia is pub. at 12
marks,but the publisher’s address is not at hand,though I can get it
for you readily enough if you want it. Each is bi-monthly,the Revue
containing about 100 pages annually,Hedwigia about 5001X

err r. Bartlett;

I arc ever so much obligee for your thought-
fulness in sending me the names of the Sphagna. How does
it ha: on that Mrs. Britton sent the Sphagna to Europe to

s

"be determined? I thought she was set agin sich things’'.

1 arc very glad to get the names as J think it would have
been a long time before 1 shoulc have had the courage
to tackle them, if ever,

I have not done anything with the mosses this fall;

I have been so busy with college work that I have had no time
for anything else so far. I ho o to have more time after
Christmas. Your "Air ship expedition" mosses have been
lying on my desk all this time. home day I shall get
at them so as to be able to clear off : y desk. The
latter has nearly reached that stage whore I have to clear
it of in order to find room to work. Then you will

hear from me in regard to them.

I shall be very glad to have the Georgia mosses
sometime. They will be all the more valuable if named
by Uarnstorf,

Cordially yours.

Dear 3artlett:

. The mosses care safely today. Thank you very'much
for them, out, really, T almost think I am more thankful that fan er
you wpre ii no hurry for the names; I am so crowded with oth.er work
just at present. I am. interested in what you say about arijstorf.
About a year ago I wrote him askins if he would care to examine my
G-aape" ohagna. I never got a reply an. consequently assure that
he did not care to see them. erhaos I did not have the correct
address. If you will rive it to me I will write again. I have
recent 1;; thought of writing to another uropean . phagnologist, but
have not done so yet.

I will try and remember w" at you say about sending the extra
Georgia driern to !rs. Britton. I have today had a letter from her
in which she says they are all broken-hearted over Underwood's deoth
T am not surprised that they are.

By the way, at the next club meeting you may expect me to ask
if you hay® found out about the meaning of the "3n/32 solutions”
mentioned on page 261 (et seq.) of the October Gasette, provided I
don't forget about it.

Dear Bartlett;

The Sphagna cane today. I am greatly obliged
for t v em. An sorry that you were not able to attend the last
Club meeting. You missed Leavitt*s talk .

Thank you also for the solution of the solution Question.

I had about concluded that the ”m" probably had something to do
with "'molecule”, but felt decidedly uncertain in regard to it.

I assure that a 3ir./32 solution of KaCl would be (approximately)
0.5 gm.UaCl per liter. Am I correct 0

•re you planning to be on Cambridge during the Christmas
vacation? If so perhaps I may see you if I can find time to
take a day’s vacation between now and January. I have a few
plants which I want to compare with authentic specimens at
the Gray herbarium the first chance I can get.

Cordially,

la y 12, 1900,

I have just received a small ackage from Dr. G.
'arnstorf which certains two s ecimens of the rev. Pphagnum
Favori which was described in a recent ntimber of Ehodora. One
packet is narked 'verb, arblett" and is, I suppose,for you.

.'ere you expecting a specineAl I wrote to arr.ctorf some
week'-' ago asking him. if he could tell me where 1 could get hold
of a s ; ecimon, ho dm that he would do just what he has.

I know that Dr. Parlor; is extremal;, anxious to get a specimen
and I shall divide mine wit’ him, unless he has e£s««r tfesra lately
succeeded in getting a specimen himself. lour specimen is in
two pieces and perhaps you will k cl like dividing with r.

Parlor too. That would, -give him a somewhat better showing

on the species. The package cam© to the college today and I
ar now at the house. I will try to bring it up here tomorrow
so as to have it ready to .-.end when I ho- r from you. In the
meantime I will write to hr. Parlow saying that 1 have got a
specimen that I car divide with him, hut shall rot feel at liberty
to mention you in connection with the matter until T hear from
you.

Dear Bartlett:-

I have just had an opportunity to look up the matter
of the Tal'le-top fphagmpa which you wrote about on the 5th inst.
is you do not mention ther? being any number on the packet I assume
that there was none. If this asumption is correct then the plant

is, with very si if It margin for ctouht, Sphagnum Girgersobni funs.

If there was a mucker on the pocket it may till be this species,
though more likely one of two ether oped os collected at the same
time. The above mentioned is the only one that I collected in
Quantity on soil 24, as I now recall it. The other two species
being collected "for locality only". If you are sure that there
was no number on the sample you arc safe in calling it as stated
above. If "do. 2" appears on the original packet then it is
jS. hussowi var, rhodocroum fuss. If this number appears on the
original packet please let me know, otherwise I will understand that
it is £. Girgensohni . ky only reason for saying above " ver;
sli ght margin for doubt" is that there nay possibly have been
a "Ho. 2" on the padre l and it was overlooked or lost before it
reached you.

I think very likely it would be a goof plan to have some of your
blank U b s : iter. hen I . to over i2

I will let you 'mow ’row many of ere] you. had better send re.

Cordidll; yourc,

25 May 1916.

Dear Collins;

I'm just running over some
mail that should have been answered long ago,
and find your card asking about my habitat
and geographic distribution. The data are
as follows: Acting Assistant Professor of
Botany, University of Michigan. I have
retained a connection with Washington,
having been simply "demoted without prejudice"
to $1 per month. I am acting during the absencj
of Prof. Hus. If he comes baok when his leave
is up (three years) I'll go back to Sashington|
or hunt elsewhere for an opening.

Still want Polytrichum and Catharinia?

If you do, let me know, as I'm in a new
locality and will be glad to gather some .

Cordially yours.

Postmaster,

Winchester, I. H.,

Dear Sir:—

Would you be so kind as to place this letter in the hands of some one who may be
willing to answer mv inciuiries ?

c

There has been a great deal of interest lately in some parts of New England as to.*
the greatest size attained by certain kinds of frees, and in Rhode Island, especially,
statements have been published, based on careful measurements of particular trees that
were claimed to be the biggest known of their kind. In reply to such a claim concorniii|i
the white pine, I mentioned the magnificent row of white pines bordering the Ashuslot
giver in your town, and expressed some doubt whether Rhode Island could surpass them.
Reliable figures were called for; so,for the credit of Winchester,! am writing to ask
if some one will not take and send me careful measurements of the girth of sev oral of
the largest of this row of pines, She girth of the trunk should be measured in feet
and inches breast high from the ground. If a tape measure is not to be had, any stout
cord that will not stretch will do and the measurement taken from the cord carefully
with a two-foot rule. Of course cars should be taken to keep the tape or cord level
all the way round the trunk, so that the measurement will be trae.

Tendering my thanks in advance for the trouble involved, I am j

"r. V7. H.Blanchard,

Westminster, Vt.

Dear r. Blanchard:

Yours of the 29th is at hand. I hope you
will reserve, temporarily, a poot set of your distribution of
the species of Kuhns, Betula and Amelanchier; for our herbarium.
I dare say your prices will be reasonable, but, in order to
-ore fully comply with the business regulations at the office
of the University you had better send me a memorandum of the
price and the probable number of spedimene in the first lot
before I send you the official order for the same.

Very truly yours,

February 6, 190t.

'r. W. H. Blanchard,

Dear hr. Blanchard:

Your letter of the 4th is at hand, and the
suggestions therein are eatisfactor; to me, ■ : e should he

'Iy dear ""y, Blanchard:

Your let 1 c. reached me yesterday and the box
of meeirens arrived ir. {good condition today. I am very much
pleased with the . lantr, hot!: or ads account of quality and
quantity. I hope you will let roe bn or of any future distribu¬
tions of this sort and give me a cranee to get them for our
herbarium.

If you will send a bill for these plants I will "Oh” it
and send it forward it for payment. As if usually tabes come
time to get a bill through the different committees and into
the Begistrarc hands for payment I would suggest the advisability
of forwarding it very soon if, as I suspect, you would like
the money within a few weeks.

Very truly yours.

Wo it pel’or, It,

2Iy 3ear Mr, Blanchard:

Your letter of Catcher 11 reached me r. lorn day.j ago,
but I did not lave an' opportunity. to yel the records looked
up until today. 1 find there ie no ore raontioned in the Brown
catalogue lnee the establishment of the College bp ti;.e name
of Hideout or kid out , 'there I a, however, in the city directory
two names, as follows: .lidout, Hubert (Clamper), 48 Hudson Street*
and the other, Hidout, darner H. (Coachman) , 167 fntario Street._

I hope this informat ion will be of some use to you,

I rill refer your memorandum regarding the distribu¬
tion of Hubns to Professor York who now has charge of the botan¬
ical work here at the University. I presume if he desires the
set he will communicate with yon before long.

With best wishes.

Very truly yours,

Miss tilth Boss,

Uoirfch Scituate, E.l.

My dear Hiss Bossr-

I want to thak you for the information about
the elm and oaks contained in your letter of Sfune 2. I am very
glad to get it, and shall be glad at anytime to get any further
informalion^of a similar nature which you may have at any time.

You may be interested in learning that the records of the elm
were accidentally omitted from the pamphlet. There is on standing
on 6ernetary St. in this city that measures 15 feet 1 inch at its
smallest place, about 18 inches from the ground. It branches very
low down. It is not a well formed tree however. An elm in the
village of limerock measures 14 feet 4 inches breast high, and the
one at Prospect Terrace in this city measures 14 feet 2 l/2 inches.

I shall hope to see the elm you mention the next time I go out
to Ilorth Scituate, and perhaps the oak also.

Very truly yours.

Providence, June 27, 1893

Mrs. E. G. Britton

Columbia College, N.Y.C.

1 have several hundred envelopes of
unpressed mosses collected mostly in Rhode Island in
1886, 1892 & 1893, also some collected in southern Somer¬
set Co., lie., in 1886. The greater portion of all are
unnamed. There are guite a number of duplicates (irom
different stations). I see very littel prospect.of my
having time to make more than a few of the determinations
for some time to come, and have decided to turn, a loagB
portion of them over to some one Use if it can he satis¬
factorily arranged.

'Jould you care to have them or part of then and on
what conditions (i.e.- if differnent from the usual ones
in regard to Phanerogams)?

Yeru fitly

Mrs. E.G.Britton

I have "been much interested in your article
in the Agassiz Observer (on mosses) to which my attention
was recently called by Prof. Bailey. I have always admired
the mosses but have never studied them very much;

still, enough to see the disadvantage^ of the glass slides
over those recommended. I am particularly pleased with
the possibility of keeping the slides in the packets with
the specimens.

Would it be asking too much for the privilege of seeing

some of these slides-if possible bothe the slides &

permanent mount? I will of course gladly refund all
postage,

J.F.Collins,

Dear Sir,

It gives me great pleasure, to learn
that you ahave found anything in my simple little moss leassons
that will help you in your work. I fear that from your not,knowing
anything abotit the mica slides , they are not as much used for Al¬
gae, as I at first supposed. I had a box of them given me labelled
mica slides lor Algae" in Dr. Morongs hand-writing, and as I knw
that he was to have collected characeae for Dr. Allen in Paraguay,

I suppos d they came already cut. Im learned afterwards that he had
them cut for his own use. I enlocse a moss side which you may keep,
and the ordinary slide I use for first examination is the glass one
standard size, one inc h wide by 3inches long, with round cover gls
I find this will do for boiling over a lamp. At night I hold it
over tye chimney of my Student lamp, and in the dayntime I use a
candle or an alcohol lamp.As you say the great beauty is to be
able to keep them with the specimens, and I also find that focusing
with a high power , I occasional'y break a cover glass, an utter
impossibility with these slides.D9 you know Mr. Brldgham ? His horiB
ior the summer is at East Providence Centre, and he is doing some

drawings for me. I think he would be gid to show you some of his
slides.

Very sincerely,

E.G.Britton.

■n ar Mr. Collins,

T have been intending to write to you and
congratulate you on that nice set of Algae just issued, in which
you and others have done your share so nobly and so well. It is
a credit to American students to have such work to show. And fur¬
thermore it throws all recent attempts to distribute exoiccatae
by foreign collectors in the shade, and shows them what we call
good work. I shall be only too glad to send you duplicates of mossa
and will get re^dy a set for you at once! resides, I think I can
rpomise r>rof -r,ailey for the Department, a set of the jaeger dupli¬
cates of Eurcj^e^an Mosses, I have 16 sets of them, and have taken
care to keep as many duplicates as possible, in order to help Am¬
erican students to become independent of so much Eurc^kn help.

kWlfl' •nlease let me know what book^you ha^ve in the Library too, as occa¬
sionally I have a duplicate to spare. Is there a | set of my re
prints ? on the Mosses ?

I do not know that it is necessary for us to make our section a
chapter of the A.A. I rahter think we shall work better indepen¬
dently, simply using the Observer as our journal, for the present.
The Linnean Pern Chapter wanted us, but their little pamplet can
not afford illustrations, and they are very important. I shall be
very glad to reveeive any su^ggestions, and am waiting to hear frera
those who would like to help. My principal idea is to facilitate
exchanges, stop this sending abjo^ad for nagi ing and distributing,
our American Mosses, and teach others how to help themselves.

Dr. Evans will give us soon 10-12 papers on the Hepaticae, which we

and willingly look over j*our drawings and Jfar specimens. I shall
be away from home over pecoration ay, but after that expect to be

attention. It seems unlikely that S eouler lgt should be found in Mai-

er such as 1. aciculari s (L.) ?T ulier ( §acomi f rium acicularl s)
which grows in mountain streams. I have never known of Scouleria

having been found anywhere else than on the West Coast and the
Rocky Mountains .

Dear -r. Collins,

your letter and the packets of C. rivulars
and Anacamptoflon have been received. You know perhaps that accrod-
ing to the lat4st treatment of the genus, apocarpa and rivularis ar
separated, and 3 think correctly. It is very kind of you to send
me the Anacamptodon. I do not thibk wehad it from Main , and we are
always gald to have a new staterepresented in the herbarium, and
ma ine has not been at all thoroughly worked. I think ^rof P. L. Har¬
vey of Orone ..nine would be glad of a set of duplicates of any Me.
mosses that you can spare for him. he has been sending me some for
namirg .

/

You ask me about your drawings. I think they are very good and I

ce rtainly should keep them with the speciemsn as you study them.

At kew they file a separate set of illustrations. At Columbia, we

naste on to the sheets in the^j^rbarium, any illustrations that we

get of the different species, then we have them there ready for
/

reference

I shall be pleased to help you at any time that you are pixzzled, I
wish you could see my Adirondack collections.! studied them all cr4
t^ally tis winter, mounted them up in fine shape, named all the
odds and ends, looked up all the doubtful ones, and find that 1
ha e 27 rare species, including three that have only been found in
the IJ.S. but once, Bryum concinnatum, Hypnum ^eckii and II/ T-amesii,
Zygodon viridissimus, uxbaumia indusiata,8chistostega osnundacea,
of which I enclose a specimen,n,etraplodon m.nioides, Anacamptodon

1902

De ar Mr s. Britt on,

Does one often find Sphagnum fruiting in
March, in this climate? I was almost as astonished as if I had found

It was at

ripe strawberries, but parhaps that only shows my ignorance

Magnolia,in woods near the station--we found a few fruiting bits—some
fallen capsules, and some still afittached,and containing spores. Last
July and August I found plants two species at least,in the Magnolia_swa=
swamp, abundantly fruiting; I looked in my Braithwaite's Sphagnaceae,
but suppose the dates were given for English specimens—then in Lesqueu
and James,and found no dates--then in the mounts that dear Mr.James
gave me,and found the dates ranged from June to Sept, inclusive,and
were mostly New Jersey specimens. I should be ever so glad to Imow
what you can tell me, for two of the Botany Group were with me,when we

found them—on March 15th. We rambled around close to the Magnolia statu-^
but brought back only about thirty species, and many of them sterile.

I had promised Mrs. Tower and Mrs. Read that! would show them Buxbaumia
growing,and so I did,but the plants were not quite ripe—they were
sitting in little coveys on the bank by the station road.

We got a sterile JBleurocarp that I said was the same that Dr.Grout
had named Eurhynchium Boscii ,but there was a great outcry—they knew

Boscii--! had found it in Brookline where a lawn sloped down to a
retaining wall, and also had some exactly similar from the French Broad
River—banks of—both golden- .and bronze in color,and growing in rather

I-'y dear Mr. Collins,

~)o not be discouraged, go on collecting, and seeig
ant- 1 - thinkung, and recognizing. I have be-n through the sane woods, and
come out of it, more or less cheerful and happy. I still have a lot
of my own collections unnamed, put away and some of other peoples too.
But as we get more space, more money end more help, I shall get them
all straight in time, and so will you. I should be glad to help you
by running them over hrstily with you, if I could. But I suppose most
of your puzzles, require critical examination. Still we all could help
if you ohose to get out a set of unnamed specimens, and send them to

■ t j i~3

r ‘ j e ' *'* i • ° u t, and rayslef, we couldmprobably help you out between

us .

We a11 rerrt in the way you mean, and it does us more good than ab¬
solute idleness. It is the outdoor exercise and the pleasure of seeing
new places and things. I wish you might get down to see us before you '
settle down to work again, I think it would do you good.

Cordially yours,

Dont worry about the exchange. T have enough mounting
and work to do, to keep my girl busy for a year ahead, so there is plen

ty of tine, and we are not anxious to build up a large New England col¬
lection, but if you have any very interesting things from Paine , we

hell be gladt to see them. I an sorry to hear that your teaching takes

so much of your time. Y/e manage to keep busy all the time , but it has

the help, mounting paper, envelopes and case room that I needed, and
noxr we are getting in a lot of new furniture, so that I shall have all
the room as well.I am to have a little room a 1 ! for my mosses alone,
and nothing e 1 se in it, and I shall be very glad.

hr. • ilia ins has returned from Bolivia ad borught a v
very "ine collection of noses and ferns, the finest that have ever been
brought to our collections, so Prof. U derwood says.Prof. Underwood is
now in Jamaica, and will go to Cuba later, the Eastern end , to collect
fungi with Prof, Earle,Our managers seem vailing to pay the expenses
for exploration of the best Indies, of any botanist that we choose to
send there, T/hat is the matter with your New Englad moneyed men ? Y/hy
dont you start in to wake them up ? hr. Schermerhorn has just died, who
gave Schermerhorn Hall to Columbia, “is Daughter is Mrs. Bridgham of
rovidence. (^an y u not Intercut dir. B. in travelling and collecting ,

I know that he has much natural talent in that direction, and has done
some drawings of fungi for Dr* Farlow, and some mosses for me. His
tastes ran toward Entomology a -1 so.

My dear Mr. Collins

How very kind of you to send me such lovely specimens with such
neat labels all mounted and ready to put on the sheets, they are simply
charming, so please accept my thanks and let me wish you all success in
further study and exploration.

I am hard at work on our West Indian and allied Florida
collections, and just now am in a pucker over Fissidens and Macromitrium.
Either M. mucronifolium of the manual is not that species or else I have,
still another species from Florida. I suppose you have not by any chance
a specimen of Fitzgerald's collecting in Florida, if you should have I
should be greatly pleased to see it.

With many thanks, believe fW-

Yours sincerely.

My dear Prof. Collins

The second part of the Flora of ITorth America has just
been issued and Professor Underwood, Poctor Evans and I have had a meeting
and talked over matters as a preliminary for volumes 14 & 15 which are to
include the mosses and hectics. I am writing now to my bryological

correspondents to know how much help we may count on and in what families of
mosses, principally in the acrocarpus to start with.

We have had a card card catalogue made from Engler &
Prantl Pflanzenf ami lien including all the mouses of Greenland, ITorth America,
Central America and the West Indies and it looms up as quite a task.

I write to ask you whether you would he willing to

take any part and whether your duties at Brown University would permit of

your planning to come here fox- a month or so during the year and take work

under one of our free scholarships. They pay §50.00 and the completed pages

of the ITorth American Flora when printed pay $2.00 per page. Dr. Best has

indicated his preference for the families Bartramiaceae, Uniaceae and Polytri-

chaceae . Dr. True,I hope.will finish up his Dicranaceae and I want to do

Fissidens , Orthotricheae and Grimmiaceae , hut would he willing to give up any

of these to any one else who chooses to take them and tackle the Tortulaceae

- --—— *

which everybody seems to he a little shy of. The onlty genera that T

positively decline to do are Bryum and Sphagnum.

January....l£.t.h,.1.906.,

Prof. J. F. Collins,

Brovm University,

Providence, R. I.

My dear Prof. Collins:-

Thank you very much for your letter of January 14th.

I shall le glad to hear of any change that will enable you to have more time
for the mosses. I will answer your questions in turn: 1. nothing would

happen if you were unable to complete your work on the ITorth American Flora.
There is no contract in regard to it. If you have not seen the two parts
which have appeared of this work and decide to assist us,I shall be pleased
to send you a sample copy. 2. There is no limitation as to time for com¬
pletion and every author is at liberty to either monograph or compile or
both as seems best. 3. The nomenclature is based on the oldest sx^ecific
name and would probably follow the Vienna Code.although so far and until the
next congress is held in Brussels five years hence,there has been no decision
for Bryophytes. 4. Each group requires more or less different treatment,
but the plan is to get as many species on a page as possible. In the parts
which have appeared there are four or five species on a page ,but this will
hardly be possible in certain genera. The Engler and Irantl treatment wall
be follow/ed as far as possible .although I find a good many omissions and
corrections are necessary.. I am basing my sequeu6l* on a card catalogue com¬
piled from this work which includes all the llorth American species and Green¬
land, the Vest Indies and Central America, making the total 146 genera and
1500 species.

Dr. Best has only expressed a preference for the

|Jm CJovk Uatamcal harden,

HSrott* l?avk r

|jte\u ^ovU ©tty.

TTgir

Polytrichaceae , "but he has not actually made a definite promise to do them.

The other families which you mention would he fully as interesting. Lass.

Julia T. Emerson is studying the Andreaeaceae and has made a good beginning.

hr. Evans tells me that F. LeRoy Andrews has made a good beginning on the

Suhagnaceae , so that neither of those two genera need bother us,as I hope

hr. Evans may be able to persuade Mr. Andrews to^the ^phagnums.

The scholarship yields $50.00 a month and the time

may be devided to suit your convenience. I would advise however, your

beginning the work at such a time that you could have a month free and I

could be here. I expect we shall be away 'between the 18th and 28oh Oi

March and a week or ten days is very little time, especially if you have

(h wis

college duties on your mind between ta-etes.

Thanking you for your interest and hoping that you

may be able to join in the work, believe me.

Very sincerely yours.

* Ky dear Mr. Collins
f I have "been house cleaning^this morning and find that

I have a number of Hew England mosses unnamed. I do not care to take the
time to determine these, so I am sending them to you under separate cover
thinking perhaps that they may be of interest to you. If you do not want
them, throw them away.

My dear Mr. Collins:-

We are back from our trip to Jamaica where we
made a great haul of mosses, hepatics, lichens and ferns. Doctor
Evans and Mr. Bichols were with us as well as Professor Underwood
and Mr. Britton, so we had a good time and found lots of treasures.

One day last week Kiss. Lorenz spent the day

with me and we went over her puzzles. Among them was a specimen
from Mt. Mansfield, collected on the Fourth of July trip,which
proves according to Dr. Best to be either Pseudoleskea substriata
or lescuraea frigida , from Kindberg's imperfect description^
apparently the latter. Miss. Lorenz is sending you a duplicate
at my request. I also enclose a specimen about which there seems
to be some doubt, it may be- of interest to you, so keep it.

I also had a call from Mr. Chamberlain^whom

I had not previously met^and he told me of your having mounted the
Wilson duplicates for Professor Farlow.

You may be interested to know that Mr. Williams

is in England,where he has gone to pack the Mitten herbarium which
we have just purchased.

With kind regards, believe me,

The package of mosses collected in Georgia by

Ho. 907 for Isopterypium micans (Sw.) and believe it is simply a
very slender form of this species which is quite common in our
Southern States and which I have proven to be the same as
Magiotheeium Groutii Cardot & Theriot Pot. Gas. May 1904. I
suppose you intended these for us.

We leave for Jamaica, West Indies on the 22d

!y dear krs, Britton :«*

Your letter cane several' weeks aro in trie
iBixrst of a Brash" season with me, and as a result it was mislaid
or overlooked until recently. It was then so near the Boston
meeting of the A. A. A. 3. that I concluded to nee you there.

At the latter place it almost seems, as I now look hack upon it,
as if we had mutually agreed to nersiste tly dodre each other; at
least we could not have succeeded hotter if we had. I was extreme¬
ly sorry not to attend the /ullivant Society meeting, hut I was
Obliged to he elsewhere that afternoon. I went around to the Bat.
Hist. rooms in the a.m. hoping to see you then. I also looked for
you at several other meetings in Boston.

He\lying to your questions in the letter I would say that x have
heon working on Polytrichum whenever a little time As available.
From our correspondence of some three years ago I understooa ^nat
I was expected to do the Polytrrchaceae for the iT. A.llora, and ha\e
slowly been working along those $ lines, though for tr.e past cn.o
years I have not found very uch time for this particular work.

I judge from your letter that there is some misunderstanding in
regard to the matter. Please let me know.

I called at the Garden last sum. er and also in ’08 to see you,

I saw Brs.l3urri.il, Rydberg, and.Andrews last•dimmer and Hr, small

in ' 08. If I had known any ahead of &cr time that I could have
visited the Garden I should have written you, hut as it was I had
to take ay chances of finding you.

My dear Mrs. Britton

I have "been out of town most of the time
since June, and for this reason, probably, your letter of the
25th of Juljr failed to reach me until I returned to Providdnce
a few days ago.

You probably know before this that I have resigned my
position in Brown University in order to accept a position in the
Bureau of Plant Industry in Washington. My permanent address
will be,as heretofore, the Providence address given at the top of
this sheet, although in the summertime I expect to be in the field
most of the time. For this reason the chances of my being able to
arrange to take one of the scholarships that you mention are not
very favorable, though by no means out of the question, so far as
I can see now.

I am still following up the Polytricha as my avocation,
and I am hoping that I shall have more time for the work when I
am in Providence than I have had for several years past; it
could not very well be less.

Hoping you have had a pleasant and profitable summer,

I remain very truly,

I was in lew York some little time ago. As ray time was rather
limited and I was told that you were in Europe, I did not attempt
to get up to the garden.

My dear Mrs. Britton

Your letter of the 10th, addressed to
Providence, was forwarded to me in Washington where I have Been
since the middle of December, until within 46 hours, I have Just
had opportunity to look iip the records t■ at I have of the species
mentioned in the letter to Hr. Chamberlain (which I return herewith',
I fear that I can add little, if anythin/?, of interest to what has
already been indicated, but as I am uncertain in several cases
I indicate below what may be of interest, although I think you r.tst
already know of all of them.

My dear Miss Horr:-

Am glad to hear of your moss-class and
that you are at work on the "local flora." If you will pardon
my giving you unsought advice "Do keep a record and specimens
of all local mosses !" send duplicates either to the Mew England
J.otanl.oal Club or to v. ?. Collins, 468 Hope street. Providence,
Rhode Island, who has a card catalogue of all Dew England mosses.
You may and probably will, add some extensions of ranges , varia ¬
tions or rare species to his list l

Sincerely yours.

My clear .Mias Carr:-

Your .letter of the 6t : reached me today.

I am in no special hurry for the Folytrichum specimens; whenever
you can..get at them in the sparing'. I am very much interested
in the Hair-caps, and h .re been studying them for some years.

I guess it will require some more years of study before I can
really know much about them. I would bo very glad to get hold
of any and all forms of Folytrielrams. 'ogonatuns, and Catharinaeas
in your region,as I an working on sue the order holytriehaceae
for the Forth American Flora which is being issued by the Hew
York Botanical harden. I am sending you a few pamphlets along
this line which may be of interest to you.

Hy dear Hi as Carr: -

Thanh von for the "haircaps" which came in
cine scan on. I would bo glad to get specimens of the common
species if son have a good opportunity to collect them when
they are in good condition.

Fresh specimens will he satisfactory if, that is the most

convenient w ye for you to send them, hut after the first of June

you had better let them dry before you send them, as I expect

to be away most of the time from early June to the' middle of

September, and tilings sent during that time might remain in the

wrappers until I reach home again. First class mail matter

)

will, however, be forwarded.

Very truly yours.

Miss C. M. Carr,

Co. Framingham, Mass.

My dear Miss Carr:-

I have not yet had chance to go over yon mosses
that You sent me in Mgry 1910 critically, so I cannot say with certainty
as to just what I should call the several forms that you sent me of
the Polytriehum commune group as®. I am quite sure, however, that
none of them is typical P. commune . I am also quite sure that nearly oJUL
of the c omm une forma that you sent are the var. perigoniale . As I
recall the specimens there are two tall ones (perhaps three) that
look, off hand, as if they might he something a little different.

I had hoped to have time to study them "before this. Will report later.
