Correspondence

A letter from Harry Bolus to Lucy Lloyd at the Grey Library, written on a Friday morning in Cape Town, likely in the late 1870s. Bolus identifies one of the plants Lucy sent him as Trifolium angustifolium, noting that it is not indigenous and giving its origin. He also acknowledges receipt of the Folklore Society circular and agrees to join, provided he may subscribe purely as a general reader at four issues per year, as he lacks time to contribute more.
