Lengthy discussion of William Thomson’s address [BAAS, Edinburgh 1871].
Has read Thomson’s address with "greatest interest", but JDH has said exactly what he [CD] thinks of it.
Herschel’s was a good sneer. It made him add the Raphael Madonna simile in Descent [2: 142].
Differences in violet and honeysuckle cases.
Huxley basted Thomson awfully in Section D [of BAAS].
