| Notes: | Label source: In a letter to Mr Morris dated Oct 19th 1889 Messrs Ide & Christie say that samples similar to the one sent had been laid before them recently from the West Indies & were reported upon by them as being useless for brushmaking or any other i, ndustrial purpose. This sample is harsh, woody brittle of little or no strength & has no value as it would meet with no sale as a commercial article. | ||||
