Notes: Note source: No photo Opuscular source: Letter from the Hague (name illegible) to Southall and Co., 3.9.1874. My dear sir, You will probably remember the thin quills of bark exhibited by Southall at the last Exhibition in Bloomsbury Square and if so al, so the packet on which the amount of alkaloids was stated. I thought this was stated to be 10 per cent but in talking over it with Dr Paul he supposed I had read wrong and that it was 0.1 per cent. Could you find out the origin of this bark? Yours sinc, erely (Rest of letter illegible)
