Requests proofs of Expression.
So far VOK has lost money on his translation of Descent because of pirate editions.
Agrees to share profits on Expression.
Wishes to come to Down to make arrangements for Russian translation of Expression.
CD cannot omit mention of Wilhelm Wundt’s Thierseele [Vorlesungen über die Menschen und Thierseele (1863)] in his book.
Murray could control the number of copies of translation of Expression sold in Russia by the number of heliotypes he will supply.
VOK is marking the passages [in Wundt, Menschen und Thierseele (1863)] that may interest CD.
