29 Albemarle St London <1>
April 22d 1833
Dear Sir
I have sent to Mr Hunneman <2> your box of insects addressed to Mr Steven. <3> I received the Ferns <4> quite safe, & am particularly obliged to you for the trouble you have taken in naming them which has added materially to the value of the collection in my estimation. There is one of them, a little Polypodium, which you mark as new, and which is certainly very pretty – I think it is related to P. Plumula – If you like to have it <5> to add to your collection I shall be happy to present it to you.
I remain, Dear Sir, Yours very truly
H. F. Talbot
