My dear Fox
I write one line only (for I have been writing till I am quite wearied) to say that a Dorking Cock, more like an ostrich than a simple fowl, arrived this morning; & I presume from you.—
It is a splendid acquisition, & I thank you much for it.— It will make a grand skeleton.—
I hope all is well with you.— | My dear Fox | Yours most truly | Ch. Darwin
