Mr Darwin

Dr Sir

Not knowing your address, when I wrote you from the West Indies, I addressd it England, and as I have not heard from you since my return home, thinking it may have never reached you, I now send a duplicate of it, having obtaind your address from the Messrs. Appletons, and hope for a reply1

Yours Respectfully | William Green

Green enclosed a copy of his letter of 30 January 1872 (the copy is in DAR 165: 223–4). No letter to Green from CD has been found. D. Appleton & Co. was CD’s US publisher.
