Observations on her pet pug.
Is trying to persuade "our friend" [T. H. Huxley?] to accept a gift.
Thanks TD for catalogue of his Cretacean fossils.
Regrets he cannot visit Brighton.
CD particularly wishes to see JT "On business not connected with himself" [the fund for Huxley’s holiday]. Asks whether CD may call that afternoon. GHD adds postscript saying CD very fatigued. He hopes JT can come to see CD instead, but he should not mention that GHD suggested it.
Thinks the Huxley fund should be done. Difficulty will be getting him to accept it.
Sends his 6th volume.
