My dear Sir

We shall to reprint your work on the Descent of Man, as we require nearly 200 more copies than we have in stock.1

Do you wish to make any corrections in the stereotype plates?2

Yours faithfully | Robt. Cooke

Chas. Darwin Esq

The most recent reprinting of Descent 2d ed. was in 1879; an additional thousand copies (the fourteenth thousand) were issued in 1881 (Freeman 1977).
There were no known changes to the text of the 1881 reprint (Freeman 1977).
