Sends a Japanese book illustrating the expression of emotions.
Thanks for Japanese book and for HNM’s papers on observations made during Challenger voyage.
Would be pleased if HNM visited him.
Accepts invitation to Down for 17 or 18 November.
Finds he does not have a duplicate of the Japanese natural history book. Sends other volumes of grotesque pictures.
He can show F. W. Hutton erred in calling Peripatus novae zelandiae self-fertilising; suspects J. F. Bullar has made a similar error on parasitic Isopoda. They both mistook spermatophores for testes.
Thanks for Japanese books, and papers by HNM.
Comments on Peripatus.
Not disappointed at what William Thomson says about evolution.
