To A. C. Ramsay   18 February [1862]1

Down Bromley Kent

Feb. 18th

Dear Ramsay

Many thanks for your note. I should much like to hear your paper & new view on the mountain Lakes,2 but I can seldom stand the hot & late Scientific meetings. I have been for some time wishing to pay you a visit at the Museum & have a little talk, & when next in London I hope to get time to put my wish into execution.—3

Yours very sincerely | C. Darwin
