From Anton de Bary 20 February 1879
Dear Sir,
Having read your kind letter d. Febr. 11, and feeling myself quite innocent of the regular sending of the Botanische Zeitung of which you complain, I wrote to the editor of the journal in order to get an explanation, and I received to-day the answer from Leipzig. The editor writes that, by the orders of Mss. Williams and Norgate, London, he sends to you the B.Z. every week, franco, by post.1 The copies, you receive regularly are therefore the continuation of the journal, which you seem to have formerly received by another way.
I beg you, dear Sir, to allow me the expression of the highest respect, and I remain | Yours faithfully | A de Bary.
Strassburg 20 Febr. 79.
