Description: Jardine Correspondence transcribed by Jean Kelly August 2021. Transcription: Wynberg Dispensary 20th Oct 1863. My dear Walter I now send [?]Dantjie with a box as you requested. In taking them out of the pots try and leave as much earth about the roots as you can so that the growing of them will not be affected. I think that if you [?] choose first to damp them well with water it would make the earth more firm and stick closer to the roots – but you will understand best what to do. In the meantime with kindest regards I am, dear Wattie, Your sincere friend John Christie.
