Dr. George G. KennedyMilton,

Mass., U.S.A.

Dear Dr. Kennedy,

Some time before leaving Boston I was honoured by a

notice from Mr. Charles ?. Adams to the effect that my name was im-posed, as a member of the Committee of Harvard College, to visit the

Gray Rerbariun. On receipt of that letter I wrote that as business

engagements necessitated my absence in Europe during a large part of

1903, it would not be practicable for me to accept the ai p ointment

,

and perform any full measure of duties apertarning thereunto. I am

now in receipt of notice, signed Winthrop H. Wade, Secretary . of my

appointment, and by this mail I am accepting, as requested, the

appointment . Subject to limitations mentioned in my previous commu-

nication, I am addressing this to you because I cannot conceive of

&nj other member of the Committee who would have the temerity/" tothrust upon the notice of such an eminent body of gentlemen, so

humble, insignificant, and useless a member thereof as this writer

knows himself to be. In case meetings of the committee shall be

To j>r . G-e orge G . Kenne dy . - 8~

called during my enforced absence I shall look to you accordingly

to make all necessary excuses for ay absence, and also pay all fines

that the good order of the Institution shall inflict upon this delin-

quent .

Although I am informed that this town has clearer atmos-

pheric conditions this winter than have been known for several

generations., from my months ' experience here I should not care to

invest heavily in orchids or any other choice horticultural family

for cultivation in this neighbourhood. Yesterday I dined with my

friend Mr. Richards, of the Dominion Steamship Co., at his BeauM".-

ful estate in Cheshire, and partook of most attractive looking rus sat

coloured pears, grown on the premises, which for flavour might

possibly compare with a well-grown rutabaga, as produced in our lati-

tude. I also partook of so-called black Hamburg s of enormous size,

full of juice, but with a flavour not equal to a garden gooseberry.

How any fruit can be produced with full flavour in such a dull,

smoky atmosphere as would seem to be normal here it is difficult to

surmise. I am much enjoying the mild winter temperature, the qi.iiet

orderly method of life here prevailing, but thus far have not conclud

-ed to remove my humble abode from its x^esent location.

After spending some father time in Great Britain at will

be necessary for me to pursue the purposes of my present trip on

the Continent, first at Paris, then at Vienna, afterwards at Basle

and other points. There is a half formed plan in my mind to take a

look at the wonderful dam just opened on the Kile, and afterwards to

take a glimpse at the flower gardens ux^on the southern Mediterranean.

You are doubtless at this very moment, drinking in the

To.. Dr , George G . Kennedy.-3-

rich tones of the Sjonphony Orchestra. Among the severest trialincident to this trip is deprivation of those weekly upl iftingsthe spirit, and daily contact with my little plant collection.

whenever you meet the other no"ble Georges Of your dis-

tinguished class please wish them a Merry Christmas, a Happy ITewYear, and long continued residence in the land of sunshine andfreedom.

Yours faithfully,

I am under obligation to you for

copy of your charming and useful reproduction from Rhodora on Flora

of Willoughby, Vt . Your investigations and tramps in procuring the

large supply of valuable data must have been in all ways delightful,

as its presentation is useful and valuable.

I think you vd.ll enjoy reading a letter received some tine

since from Barrett Huntington, in response to one from me, which is

admirably expressed and which I enclose accordingly with this.

Again thanking you for your remembrance, I am,

Wild Flowers of New England Wild flowers of New York


P1TTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

February 1st, 1917

My dear Doctor Kennedy: -

Soon after the publication of ray Wild

Flowers of New England I was asked by many subscribers to add to

the series. During the Season of 1916 I have printed two supple-

mentary volumes, but only fifteen copies of each can be made. The

platinum paper used for printing the plates is ma.de in France and

coated in England. Early in 1916 the English Government prohibit-

ed the use of that metal except for purposes of war. I then had on

hand sufficient stock for these few volumes which I offered to the

original purchasers in order of sale. If you would like to add

these two volumes to your Series will you please let me know?

These two volumes have a greater proportion

of the fruits than the original series, biit the same system is

carried through. By the way, plates 301 and 302 of the new series

are of Salix Candida.

During the past season I have been trying

to make plates of all the Orchidaceae of the Northern States and

have added twelve plates to those I had. I hope to complete the

series the coming season as several collectors have promised to

help me procure the plants I need. The Calfpa of which I wrote

you two years ago was sent me from the vicinity of Ferrisburg,Vt

.

and I made a fine negative. It is very interesting to compare

these plants which grew in sphagnum with those sent me from the

State of Washington where they grow on comparatively dry ground.

The Eastern plant is much more delicate even in color. I hope to



Dr.Kennedy page 2nd) p.ttsf.eld, Massachusetts

live and complete the negatives of this family. If I do, I shall

publish them with a page_of descriptive matter facing a full sized

picture of each plant,

trusting this will find you in good healthI am.

Yours very truly,

ncluding Prof. Jeaup'a collections, and find no specimen labelled from that place,

e have specimens of that genaa from other places, but I think that you are inter-

ou. If there is anything else that I can do to aid you I shall be only too glad

o do it. Do not hesitate to call upon me..

Dear Sir:

Your letter of the 1st addressed "Br. Kennedy, Roxburgh"

was delivered to my father, Dr. George G. Kennedy, of this address

and "by him handed over to me for his reply.

My father would be very much obliged to you if you would

give him an idea of what you think John Brown needs and how his

wants can "best he attended to. In the interim the enclosed

draft for five pounds endorsed in your favor will, my father hopes,

he spent in such a way as you see. fit.

I think that it is possible I may be in Edinburgh some

time this summer or fall and if so I should make a point of calling

on you in order to chat over the subject with you.

With best regards, I am

Dear Sir:

There is a poor old man John Brown living at the back

of our house here in one room for which he pays one dollar a week.

We help him from time to time, but have our own burdens and folk

too

.

It came to me you might like to help him in his old age.

He is over 80 and an invalid from nerves and spine damaged by a

fall. He attended your father in his later years and was with

him when he died in Washington, B.C. I think your father liked

him very much and was very kind to him. He had two sons in South

Africa who used to help him. One died last year after a long

illness leaving a wife & children & no money. The other he has

not heard from for 18 months, his letters being returned "Gone,

no address". His son used to go "on the bust" periodically & he

fears he may have died, been ruined, or be in jail now. The oldfellow has only 2 1/2 dollars a week to live on, and he needs to

have a woman in every day to do his little jobs. He is wonder-fully good and patient and never asks for any help. He has no

idea I am troubling you thus . Any money you send I will gladly

administer or it could be done by the authorities of his church

who have a lot of very poor to look after. His health has suf-fered for want of good food and comforts this last year.

2If you look up any "Who ' s Who" or official list in your

club or library you will see I am the son of the Right Hon. Sir

J.H.A. Macdonald, Lord JusticeClerk of Scotland and live with

him here. I am well known to Archdeacon Webber (of the Episco-

pal Church of U.S.A.) of your city. He was with me here 14 days

ago at the World's Missionary Congress. I spent three happy

days in Boston in the fall of 1901 in charge of the big deputation

of the officers of British RailwaysMr. Clark of the B. & A. B.R.

and Mr. Tut tie of the B. & Maine were kind to us. I know many

of your big railway men like Loree,

Delano, Cassatt (late), Bald-

win, Voorhees, Depew & a host more (Theodore Ely and so on).

I mention this to let you see I am not a fraud 1.

November 1, 1910.Dear Sir:-

During the legislative year of 1910 the Associationsuccessfully opposed a number of bills hostile to the merit system.It also advocated the extension of the system to the counties andto certain departments in the city of Boston. This was in linewith the recommendations of the Boston Finance Commission that thelaw be extended to include all appointees in the collecting,treasury and penal institutions departments of the city and alsocertain appointees in the registry of deeds, registry of probateand a few similar positions. No legislation of this characterwas, however, passed.

During the coming year the Association will, inparticular, advocate the extension of the merit system to thevarious county positions. It will also appear in favor of allbills aimed at perfecting and improving the provisions of the Bostoncharter relating to the classification of offices.

The Association is often the only remonstrant to appearagainst proposed legislation of a hostile nature and its work inthis regard is effective and valuable. There has never been a timesince the organization of the Association when its continuedactivity was more needed in the community than at present.

A full and detailed account of the work during the pastyear will be given in the annual report, which is shortly to bemailed to members.

To meet the expense annually incurred in our work requiresapproximately |2500, a sum of money considerably in excess of theamount received from annual dues. The annual quota of Massachusettsto the National League is |1150, and the subscriptions to GOODGOVERNMENT, the official organ of the National League, which ismailed to each member, amounts to about |250 additional.

A generous contribution is asked from you in additionto the annual dues in order that the work of the Association may beeffectively carried on.

Checks should be made payable to Mass. Civil ServiceAss'n.

My dear Dr. Kennedy:

I enclose my cheque for | 1.10. It repre-

sents the unused trips on the season ticket to Readville, which

I redeemed the other day fearing it might otherwise become void.

Since you paid for the ticket in the beginning, I now wish to

refund the balance due on it.

and that your interesting Bacon-Shakespeare inquiry is making

progress. May I say that I am open for engagements, and much

hope that some day I may be permitted again to help you ? Be-

lieve me, with kind regards,

I trust the summer has gone well with you,

respectfully yours,

Dear Doctor:

I take pleasure in sending you by this mail a package of germs for inocu-

purpose but I think the culture for common pea which I am sending you will be

beneficial.

Wishing you success with your experiment, I am,

Yours very truly,

Dear Dr. Kennedy,

Perhaps you will have forgotten that when we

were at Salem together last spring I promised to send you some

mosses collected in British Columhia. I have so many things

to look after when in the field that I do very little at Crypto-

gams and my collection of mosses was not very large. Shortly

after my return from the field my material, with specimens from

other localities, was sent to Dr. Kindherg for determination,

lie has reported on part of the specimens, of these^I send you

duplicates "by mail to-day. Hot many of them will "he interesting

to you except as coming from a remote region from which no mosses

have "before he en "hroiight, hut there are also a few good things

among them. VThen Dr. Kindherg reports on the remainder of the

specimens I shall send a Bet to you.

I wish I could look forward to a visit to Boston again

this year, hut there is no hope of my heing there, and, if we

are to meet again soon, it will he in Ottawa. I hope that you

will some time he up this way and at a season when we can go

out into the woods together. You will "be glad to know that

my daughter is a good deal "better this winter than she was

last. With kind regards to your wife and daughter,

^ery sincerely yours,

All letters on official business shouldle sent to the Director.

Bear Br, Kennedy,

Your letter of February 8th acknowledging the

mosses and telling me of your trip was duly received . You must

have had a delightful time and reading of all you saw and did

makes me almost envious, "but we each have our blessings to "be

thankful for I suppose. I have asked my father about Mnium

Seligeri and he says that he has no eastern duplicates that he

can lay his hands on at present, but we will keep it in mind

and if in going over our moss duplicates we happen on this

species specimens will be. sent you. I was greatly pleased when

I received word that I had been mad.e a member of the Sew England

Botanical Club, and' that will be another inducement to go to

Boston when I can spare the time and when I have the means, but,

as I said in my last letter, I hope .that we shall see you here

before I am in Boston for it is not at all likely that I shall

be there in the near future.

IVith kind regards to your family,

I remain,

Yours truly,

Dear Mr. Kennedy,

I have just had a letter from my son who met

you in Boston the other day. He desires me to send you the

Catalogue of Canadian Birds, which I do now in part. I suppose

he told you that Part 1 is out of print. Hoping that they will

be of interest to you,

I remain,

Very truly yours,
