of choice apple cuttings, or any good fruit, so I can graft
next Spring and send me the names of the varieties and
their numbers, and if some thrifty cuttings would retain their
buds live to be set this season so I could bud from them
I would be glad, but I do not know whether buds would
live or not after a voyage by mail; but we know the
grafts would in the Spring, but for grafting they will want
to be cut in December or January I suppose or sometime
in the winter. I feel anxious to get some fruit from the
States and those that are now growing in this city will
not do to bud from this Season.
