CD is glad to propose FMB for Royal Society. Explains information and certificates needed.
Responds to CD’s new work [Cross and self-fertilisation]. Suggests results might have been more convincing if CD had measured weights instead of heights.

Suggests an experiment to produce "sterile mongrels" which would remove objection.
Believes Aegiphila to be exclusively American.
