Thanks CD for sending his book [Descent].
TW’s account of the Ourang is very curious. CD hopes to see the primate whenever he goes to London, but he is leaving home for three weeks.
Thanks for drawing. ‘The "Woolnerian tip" is worth anything to me.’
Asks TW to persuade painters to observe how far down body blush extends on models.
Seeks support for election of his nephew, Henry Parker, to the Athenaeum.
Is much obliged to TW and his friend for having told him about the azalea, but CD had already seen the account.
