Comments on BTL’s book [The philosophy of evolution (1873)].
"You are a bold man to speak in favour of pangenesis."
Is glad to hear LD’s translation [of Origin (1873–4)] progresses well.
Offers to send a photograph of himself.
Thanks for Dionaea.
George Bentham’s last Linnean Society [Presidential] Address [Proc. Linn. Soc. Lond. (1873): viii–xxix]. Admires it greatly.
CD’s recent work leads him to a different theory [from GB’s] on the separation of the sexes of plants.
Huxley has been at Down working with CD on Drosera – very helpful.
Thanks for the extract from the American paper.
