Description:Excerpt from The Flora of the Dutch, West Indian Islands St. Eustatius: Saba and St. Martin Mrs. J. van Grol-Meyers, wife to Mr. G. J. van Grol, administrator of the Dutch West Indian Island St. Eustatius, sent to the "Koloniaal Museum in Haarlem" a nice collection of dried plants collected in St. Eustatius in the years 1904 - 1906. She also gave such a collection to the Herbarium of the Botanical Laboratory of the University of Utrecht. The latter collection of about 350 numbers gave rise to a renewed investigation to the Flora of the Dutch West Indian Islands. I am glad to say that the collection made by Mrs. J. van Grol-Meyers is a very good one. The name of Mr. van Grol himself is well known to the student of the Melocacti of the Dutch West Indian Islands, and the work Mrs. van Grol did now, proved to be a great help for the study of the Flora of the Dutch West Indies Prof. Dr. F. A. F. C. Went, Director of the Botanical Laboratory and Garden of the University of Utrecht kindly intrusted to me the determination of the collection of the above mentioned West Indian Plants, and in 1305 he proposed to me to make a voyage to the three Dutch West Indian Islands St. Eustatius, Saba and St. Martin in order to get acquainted with the vegetation there I and to get a collection of the plants from the three Islands. I wish to express my thanks to "De Maatschappij ter Bevordering van het Natuurkundig Onderzoek der Nederlandsche Kolonien ("Society for promoting Scientific Investigation in the Dutch Colonies"), De Koninklijke Akademie van Wetenschappen (Korthalsfonds) te Amsterdam, the "Commissie van het F. W. van Eedenfonds in Haarlem" and the "Directie van het Provinciaal Utrechtsch Genootschap van Kunsten en Wetenschappen" (Provincial Utrecht Society of Art and Science), who subsided and so made it possible for me to undertake the above mentioned investigations.
