Note 32 — Chapter IX · COMMENCEMENT AND PROGRESS OF ANNUAL REPORTS OF OBSERVATIONS OF INJURIOUS INSECTS
Reading edition
On November 26, 1899, Miss Ormerod wrote to Mr. Newstead:—
“I am delighted with our index—the more I examine it the better I like it. Some acknowledgments have come in already, and they are most pleasantly cordial. All are delighted to have such a good reference work.... One recipient suggests the index would be more serviceable to him if he had a complete set of my reports! He absolutely enclosed a list of deficiencies, but I thought he had best buy, and only sent him that for 1896.”
Other letters she wrote about the index “were on much the same lines, and one refers to the cordial letter received from the Board of Agriculture” (Ed.).
