Box 1:

Pressed Flower Collection of Alice M. Buck of Clarkstown, Class of 1895

Pressed Flower Collection of Edward G. Jenkins of Honesdale, BSNS student, Spring 1895
        Contains pressed flowers with their scientific classification and common English name.

        Donated from Baltimore, MD in May of 1953 with the following note:
                "The flowers in this herbarium were picked fifty-eight years ago this spring on the hills not far from the (then) State Normal and mounted as required in the course. The herbarium has been among the souvenirs in my house in several States and now returns to the native hills of the flowers. I was privileged to spend only the last term of a junior year in the Normal but received an inspiration which has richly blessed the years since 1895."
