Mrs Henslow’s death stirs reminiscences of happier days.
CD and his family have come to the seashore, driven from home by scarlet fever at Down, death [of Charles Waring Darwin], and other family illness. Sorry to miss seeing JSH.
Would be grateful to hear his objections to CD’s species speculations.
Arrangements to meet JSH at station for his visit to Down.
