To J. O. Westwood 9 July [1860]
Summary
Thanks JOW for the bees. The pollen-masses that were attached to one of them have unaccountably been lost.
Does not know of a paper by Charles Morren on orchids and insects, and would be glad to have the reference [see 3267, and Orchids, p. 270 n.].
Has spent so much money recently he is unwilling to subscribe for the purchase of T. V. Wollaston’s collection for the [Oxford] Museum.
