Response to ARW’s criticisms in his review [of Expression, Q. J. Sci. n.s. 3 (1873): 113–18].
Comments on SB’s book [The fair haven (1873)]. CD is struck by SB’s dramatic power – thinks he could write "a really good novel". Surprised at strength of case SB makes that Jesus did not die on the cross. SB’s identity will soon be universally known: Leslie Stephen knows he is the author.
Seedling vigour resulting from crossing of parents.
CD to publish work on insectivorous plants.
Further discussion of ARW’s help on new [2d] edition of Descent.

Thinks he has heard of land shells descending in the manner described by RS.
