Hopes CD is coping with the very hard winter.
Has heard of CD’s forthcoming book [Descent] from J. D. Hooker.
Leaves next week for winter quarters in Sandown.
Has heard "sad tales" about CD’s forthcoming book [Descent]; does not think even CD can persuade him his ancestors were apes.
Thanks CD for copy of Descent.
Notes the death of Frank Parker [CD’s nephew].
Will not pass through London, so will not be able to call at Down.
Has not seen CD for about 25 years. Has heard an absurd story that CD and Emma are exploring an unknown part of America.
Thanks CD for a copy of Expression. Is always interested in CD’s work, but finds himself diverging from some of his leading ideas.
P.S. Has found shedding of toenails in a nephew as well.
Has left Delamere and settled on the Isle of Wight.
Will try to get certain insectivorous plants for CD, especially Utricularia. Is glad to hear he has taken up Drosera.
