| Notes: | Opuscular source: Letter from Johnson to Mr Dyer dated 09.12.1897 Dear Mr Dyer, Since writing the other letter it has occurred to me you might like to have specimens of good and bad flax. I saw in the account of the defutation the Chief Sec, on the Agri, cultural Mill that Mr Reade had shown from samples of good and bad flax in support of his speech. I wrote begging them and he willingly sent duplicate. I now send portions to you with accompanying labels. I am yours sinc. Johnson. | ||||
