Dear M^r Conway

My Brother I am sorry to say has been seriously unwell for a considerable time & I feel very doubtful if he can see any one.¹

I have written to him & am sure he will be very glad to see you if able

I will let you know as soon as I hear & give you the necessary directions for getting there.²

Believe me | Yours very truly | Eras. Darwin

M. D. Conway Esq
