Specimens are by no means limited to grasses, clovers, weeds and omamental plants, but include large numbers of other things in variety, as will be seen by this summary : Seed plants, ferns, and their allies 82,069 Mosses and liverworts 2,010 Lichens 1,186 Fungi 17,953 Algae 2,470 105,688 "The collection is especially rich in Michigan plants, much th...e best of any in existence. Seven thousand at one time were purchased of C. F. Wheeler in 1863, 20,000 or more were presented to the College by Mrs. Clarissa Babbitt, the wife of Dr. Dennis Cooley of Macomb county; 5,000 were purchased of the son of Dr. D. Clark of Flint, Mich. ; 2,886 were pur- chased of the widow of G. H. Hicks; 6,705 were purchased of Prof. Chas. A. Davis while teaching in the University of Michigan.
