Writes for CD. Thanks correspondent for curious case of inheritance, which CD cannot use as he is working in different directions.
Sends pamphlet.
Thanks CD for his reply.
Has changed his mind and would like some of FBG’s hybrids to breed from. Feels he should not lose the chance of perhaps recording the fertility of hybrids of two distinct species.
Is gratified by EV’s "spirited and able defence" in the article printed in La France [26 April 1878].
