DCP-LETT-2526

From:
Richard Owen
To:
Charles Robert Darwin
Date:
12 Nov 1859
Source of text:
Shrewsbury School, Taylor Library
Summary:

Will welcome CD’s work [Origin] with a "close & continuous perusal".

Believes in the "operation of existing influences or causes in the ordained becoming and incoming of living species" and so could not regard CD’s attempt to demonstrate the nature of such influences as "heterodox".
