Report from Henry Hastings, Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, to Isaac Bayley Balfour, Regius Keeper, dated 13 November 1905.
Hastings, Balfour's Assistant, writes to provide a report from Mr. McBean regarding Forrest's charge of his careless packing of photographic material. McBean is adamant the material was packed carefully and that the box must have been opened by Customs Officials and that it must have been wholly immersed in water at some point. He admits with hindsight that a soldered tin-lined box would have been preferable and offers his apologies.
The report has been charred with some loss, though not of text.
