Sends index [of Descent, 2d ed.] with instructions for proof-reading.
Asks GHD questions about heat transmission; he wants to use it as an analogy to illustrate transmission of motor impulses through leaves of Dionaea.
Writes about instructions to compositor and return of proofs [of Descent]. Requests return of 2d volume of Descent, to which he may want to refer.
Thanks GHD for clear lecture on heat.
Will keep paper on proportion of sexes, in case GHD wants it again.
Wants him to translate some pages of Swedish or Norwegian sent by A. W. Malm, "a good man".
Glad to see the statistical paper ["Theory of exchange value", Fortn. Rev. n.s. 17 (1875): 243–53].
