Wants information on Fritz Müller’s papers bearing on Weismann’s work.
Wishes to borrow Weismann’s pamphlet on the Daphnidae [ "Ueber die Schmuckfarben der Daphnoiden", Zeitschrift für wissenschaftliche Zoologie 30 (Supp.)]. Is preparing an essay on "alternation of generations".
Encloses proof of CD’s prefatory notice for RM’s translation of Weismann; hopes CD might enlarge upon it.
Declines CD’s generous offer of assistance with publishing costs of Weismann’s Studies, but would welcome his help in getting elected to the Royal Society.
Thanks for agreeing to propose him for the Royal Society.
