DCP-LETT-329

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Richard Owen
Date:
19 Dec [1836]
Source of text:
Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge (GEN/D/DARWIN (C)/11)
Summary:

Has written to Royal College of Surgeons, exactly as RO recommended, concerning disposition of his South American fossil bones. He fixed on the British Museum, rather than Paris, to receive plaster casts, because he was on board a King’s ship. Suggests RO propose another set for Paris, where they would be more useful than at BM. Has scarcely begun unpacking his cases.
