Sending a query regarding JH's philosophy.
At Hooker’s request, sends his copy of Gärtner [Bastarderzeugung (1849)], "shamefully scribbled over".
Writes to WED about his living arrangements at Christ’s College; reminisces about his own Cambridge days.
Cannot come to London until Tuesday. Arriving about 11: 15.
Thanks for letter. Will insert the information in a forthcoming issue of the Photographic News. Awaits with interest news of the new metals discovered by JH. Would like a small quantity of Junoniate of soda.
