Thanks for CD’s letter, and further discussion of the sale of Tromer Lodge.
References to Fritz Müller’s papers relevant to Weismann’s Studien [in Kosmos (Aug, Sept, and Oct 1877)].
Will be pleased to have VOK come to Down any day.
Thanks for Movement in plants.
Describes work [on Pflanzenphysiologie, 2 vols. (1881)].
Sends his book [Naturwissenschaftliche Thatsachen und Probleme. Populäre Vorträge (1880)].
Anxious to receive Movement in plants because CD’s methods may be applicable to his experiments on the earliest movements of animal embryos.
Thanks for his great work on prehistoric remains in Portugal and his paper on Tertiary formations.
Praise for Movement in plants.
He thinks G. A. Chatin, whom CD quotes [p. 389], is mistaken about movement of conifer leaves. Cites his own paper ["Relations between morphology and physiology in the leaves of certain conifers", J. Linn. Soc. Lond. (Bot.) 17 (1880): 547–52].
Thanks for note. CD had had misgivings about Chatin but had assumed he was trustworthy [see Movement in plants, p. 389].
