Summary:

About Entomology. Describing is not of special use to the philosophical generaliser, but collecting, naming and classifying are most essential. He had described very little - except palms, when he wrote his papers on variation- but very experienced in these other areas. Errors of Galton and Bateson are due to want of such training. Description of trip to Switzerland with Mitten in the summer. Will's work with Mr Holmes.
