Sends CD the first volume of her Life of Josiah Wedgwood [2 vols. (1865–6)].
Asks her to send some specimens of Dr Erasmus Darwin’s handwriting for the Autographic Mirror.
Returns 19 of the letters CD lent her, so that he can choose one for the Autographic Mirror.
CD signed the petition, had Sir Charles Lyell do so also, and then forwarded the memorial to Sir John Lubbock.
Her memorial [for civil list pension] with the signatures of CD, John Lubbock, and Charles Lyell has arrived. It is now going to W. E. Gladstone.
