Summary:

Travel arrangements to Buckhurst Hill. Tell Mr. Cole that he has a large map to hang up, and will also require a lamp. Glad Meldola likes his "climate" theory. "If I have really hit upon the true solution of this great puzzle it will I think be the best thing I have done yet. Like most of my theories it came to me while writing, for when I began my book I had no notion of how to treat it; I only felt then that there was a great hitch in Croll's theory." Croll has been unwell.
