Excerpt from Address Delivered Before the Horticultural Society of Maryland: At Its Third Anniversary Celebration, June 4th, 1835 Dear Sir, - As a committee appointed on the part of the Horticultural Society of Maryland, we take pleasure in communicating to you the unanimous expression of thanks by the Society for the interesting and eloquent address delivered by you last evening, and request the favor of a copy for publication. Gentlemen: Notwithstanding the fear which suggests itself, that the address of which you request a copy for publication, may not meet with, on the part of the community at large, the friendly and indulgent appreciation entertained for it by the Horticultural Society, I hasten to comply with the desire expressed in your note of this date. Hoping that as a hasty transcript, of thoughts and feelings naturally suggested by the delightful topicks of which it proposes to treat, composed in the midst of the constant and perplexing interruptions of professional duty, it may find mercy at the hands of fastidious criticism, I remain, with best wishes for the prosperity of the Society of which you are the representatives., and your individual happiness.
