Very sorry WDF was obliged to go to Cheltenham with his parents instead of coming to Cambridge, for the weather is fine, the beetles numerous. Adds news of friends and facts about his collection of insects.
Thinks of reading divinity with Henslow the summer after next.
Glad WDF will visit him in Shrewsbury.
Hope visited CD; he and T. C. Eyton want CD to join them on an entomological trip to N. Wales; can WDF come?
William Yarrell has discovered a new wild swan in England; CD has had bad specimen of it stuffed for WDF.
Adds brief news of friends.
