Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Asa Gray, His Life and Work
Your letter of the 12th, so full of interest, was followed this evening by the box, which I wait for daylight before Opening. But I will not delay most hearty thanks for your very kind atten tion to my requests. I am dreadfully pressed with work now, being on the eve of completing a new lecture-room and cabinet, laboratory, etc., here in the Garden, and many things and various workmen have to be looked after, so that I cannot sit down till night, and then am tired enough.
