Summary:
Asks JDH to verify an observation on Dicentra – what CD thought was a branch in the young plant now looks like a gigantic leaf in the old.
Concurs on Spencer’s clever emptiness.
Ramsay exaggerates role of ice. Sorry to hear that Tyndall grows dogmatic.
Admits difficulty of making case for Wallace’s Royal Medal at this time.
Will soon finish the first draft of Variation.
