Discussion of his possible assistance on editorial work for revised edition of Descent.
CD’s son [George] could do the work [of proof-correction for Descent, 2d ed.] if ARW finds he does not care for it.
Further discussion of ARW’s help on new [2d] edition of Descent.
Thinks CD’s son George would be more satisfactory than ARW for the work on Descent.
Thanks for new edition of Descent.
His work on geographical distribution; drudgery and the often unsatisfactory nature of the result.
