'W J G'? or 'fruit 10 July'? I think the writing is H J Riddelsdell's. A search for related specimens draws a blank except for: http://herbariaunited.org/specimensearch/?collector=W+J+G+W+J+G&colid=19380&search=search I think any resemblance to the 2 labels with 'WJG' is superficial

Here are two of the WJG labels enhanced a bit:





There is also a 'W J Greenwood' with well written label on sheet 309144.

In a BSBI record [pdf] we have "Cirencester and its neighbourhood; The flora of, W.J. Greenwood 1914. Originally a paper read before the Cirencester N.& A.C.,19 January 1914."

Also a BEC reference [pdf] to "R. sphoerospermus Ampney St Peter, v.-c. 33, May 30, 1915. 2- W. J. GREENWOOD."
