Discusses cross-fertilisation in Vinca.
Thanks for Studies in general science [by A. B. Blackwell (1869)].
Masson et Fils have brought out a third French edition [of Origin] without informing CD and without the advantage of the corrections of the 4th and 5th English editions. For this and other reasons CD wants to give translation rights for the 5th English edition to C. Reinwald.
JM advises CD regarding his relations with Masson, the French publisher of the Origin [1866], and the possibility of Reinwald’s publishing a translation of the 5th edition.
Thanks for confirmation about the extent of blushing.
Passed JP’s house but did not call; and now regrets his restraint.
