My Dear Sister

I send you Mrs Boones papers relative to the bringing vegetables to Antigua. I have not mentiond any by name as it will be less trouble for her Correspondent to find out
Wherever he is the useful & beautiful plants of that Countrey than it would be to me to enumerate all that I know a very small part of which any one man in one voyage could have a chance of meeting with.

Your Ever affectionate

Jos. Banks.

26 April sent to Mrs Boone  27.  1773.
