Thanks GHL for his support of Pangenesis.
Replies to CD’s letter [missing]. He does intend to treat of Pangenesis "as the most remarkable hypothesis yet put forth".
His articles in Fortnightly Review have grown in number so that he plans to make a book of them. Asks CD to send him notes of his objections.
In consideration of CD’s health, withdraws his request for notes on GHL’s articles.
While in Freiburg, heard that August Weismann’s inaugural address on CD’s views [Über die Berechtigung der Darwin’schen Theorie (1868)] created a sensation.
