Mrs. C. H. Spooner Northfield, Vt..
My dear Madam:-
I received your letter of May 9th and 13 regret very much to hear what you said. I am very much disappointed in Mr. Spooner leaving. I have written ^r. Prank Pluraley in relation to the matter, hut I am too far away to get much information or to have much influence in matters^ I think a mistake has been made.
I would be very glad indeed to have Dr. Mayo write me and tell me his views in the matter; Eut the question that troubles me now is, what action will the Trustees take? Who is going to take pres. Spooner1s place?
There is no question as to his services as president. I know them intimately/ from the time he started up to 1908 by personal contact and knowledge, since then from what has been written me. And I have information from the Legislature, friends of mine from Vermont, who took a great interest in the Legislature, and they all speak of Pres* Spoonerfs work assuring me that it was mainly through his efforts that we maintained our standing and more too.
I am
Truly
(Signed.) Granville M. Dodge

C„ H. Spooner,
ITorthfi el d, Ve rmon t. My dear Sir:-
I enclose you a statement of the N.JJ, Alumni fund,. It has been pretty hard work to make out a statement from Jones1 papers, but I think I have it very nearly correct, The statement of my account is taken from my bank books; that is, everything that went into bank; all the payments I have made to you; and all the payments that were made to me. I have had commun-ication with every person who has made a payment; and have his check so that the amount that is credited to him is what he paid in, whether I re-ceived it or not and he is given credit for it. In nearly every case I think I received it but you know there was thirty or forty checks-: that never went into bank and I have had to get duplicates of them. I wish you to take this and go over it carefully and then return it to mewith any corrections to that I can check up any mistakes^I have, if you find any. I will then return it to you.
You will note that a large number have never answered and I notice where there are payments due, there is very little money coming in altho many of those who wrote promised to make payments:. Some of them did and others did not and I will write them soon again.
It seems to me there ought to be some way of getting hold of Fletcher in New York who subscribed 500. never answers a letter. Co you know
of any way of reaching him or had we better put it in an attorneyfs hands1; and do we have any 1# U. man in New York that is an attorney that you could send this matter to? The dates under/ "Remarks11 are the dates of the last letters received from them.
According to my books, the amount furnished by IT. U. is f5387.69. This is outside o^ the amount advanced by Mr. Adams and myself. In your letter to me you accounted for 2634.5? of this. Can you account for the rest.
Truly,

AFLP analysis reveals a lack of phylogenetic structure within <it>Solanum </it>section <it>Petota</it>
No full textAbstract Background The secondary genepool of our modern cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) consists of a large number of tuber-bearing wild Solanum species under Solanum section Petota. One of the major taxonomic problems in section Petota is that the series classification (as put forward by Hawkes) is problematic and the boundaries of some series are unclear. In addition, the classification has received only partial cladistic support in all molecular studies carried out to date. The aim of the present study is to describe the structure present in section Petota. When possible, at least 5 accessions from each available species and 5 individual plants per accession (totally approx. 5000 plants) were genotyped using over 200 AFLP markers. This resulted in the largest dataset ever constructed for Solanum section Petota. The data obtained are used to evaluate the 21 series hypothesis put forward by Hawkes and the 4 clade hypothesis of Spooner and co-workers. Results We constructed a NJ tree for 4929 genotypes. For the other analyses, due to practical reasons, a condensed dataset was created consisting of one representative genotype from each available accession. We show a NJ jackknife and a MP jackknife tree. A large part of both trees consists of a polytomy. Some structure is still visible in both trees, supported by jackknife values above 69. We use these branches with >69 jackknife support in the NJ jackknife tree as a basis for informal species groups. The informal species groups recognized are: Mexican diploids, Acaulia, Iopetala, Longipedicellata, polyploid Conicibaccata, diploid Conicibaccata, Circaeifolia, diploid Piurana and tetraploid Piurana. Conclusion Most of the series that Hawkes and his predecessors designated can not be accepted as natural groups, based on our study. Neither do we find proof for the 4 clades proposed by Spooner and co-workers. A few species groups have high support and their inner structure displays also supported subdivisions, while a large part of the species cannot be structured at all. We believe that the lack of structure is not due to any methodological problem but represents the real biological situation within section Petota.</p
