Comments on BAAS meeting at Newcastle.
Is having E. Suess’s essay [see 4284] translated; will forward it as soon as it is done.
Returns a letter wrongly addressed by CD [4361].
Encloses list of CD’s publications.
Describes CD’s qualifications for Copley Medal.
Council of the Royal Society have awarded CD the Copley Medal.
[Copley] Medal very great honour. Cordial thanks.
Chuckled over [Gaspard-Auguste] Brullé and pupils.
Splendid converts in Rudolf Leuckart and Carl Gegenbaur.
Hopes CD will be able to receive the Copley Medal in person. HF sees it as doubly significant in recognising CD’s work and as a protest against the profession of religious as opposed to scientific faith.
Gratified to receive Copley Medal. Cannot attend anniversary [of Royal Society]. Would HF receive medal for him?
Is sure that any of CD’s friends would be proud to accept the medal on his behalf.
The [Royal Society] President’s address is in the Reader [4 (1864): 708–9], but one or two sentences have been omitted.
Much pleased by Edward Sabine’s address.
Grateful to HF for his interest [in the award of Copley Medal to CD].
No summary available.
Encloses letter [missing] which he believes will clear up the part he played in Edward Sabine’s Presidential Address. Does not wish CD to think that he did not support the Origin.
HF merely wanted to correct a false impression given by a sentence taken out of context.
"I return your letter to [William] Sharpey." Grandest eulogium CD has received.
