DCP-LETT-117

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Susan Elizabeth Darwin
Date:
[5 Sept 1831]
Source of text:
DAR 223
Summary:

Wood has heard from FitzRoy, who seemed so much against CD’s going that CD and Henslow gave up. CD is in London; has seen FitzRoy, who is now ready to invite him. CD remains undecided. He likes FitzRoy. Gives details of prospective arrangements. They probably will be gone three years; "round the world" is not certain. Want of room is a serious objection.
