Asks for sketches of [Thalia] pistil, in which he is much interested.
Refers to Charles Lagrange, who is working on the same subject as GHD, but in a fundamentally different way.
Rejoices that "Lagrange’s case does not seem very bad".
CD is working hard at dissecting Thalia. Has recovered some handiness with microscope.
Sends drawings of specimens [of Thalia] CD requested.
Thanks GHD for his drawings [of Thalia]. Some parts need attention.
Writes to say that the point on which he thought GHD’s drawings were mistaken proves to be an error in his own observation.
