Copy of and note on a picture of Noah’s daughter averting her eyes in shame.
On "moral sense" in Descent.
Agrees that social instinct or love for fellows is the beginning of moral feeling. Responds to CD’s letter [7537].
Answers CD’s letter [7560], on points of agreement between them, the chief one being the sympathy which man has with his fellows. Disagrees however with CD’s "principle" of the painful feelings of dissatisfied instinct.
