My dear Sir,

You are very good to take my criticisms of your admirable book as they were meant. I have just finished it, and have written down a few points which strike me as notanda for [illeg.] edit[?].

You will find references to fossil mammalian and the ancient germaphiles[?] of N. W, Eurade touched in my case-hunting, and Early Man. Three lists of fossil hearts I enclose with this.

I shall hope to see you here on [2] 27th April, and regret that my wife being 'upstairs' will prevent my asking you to dine with us. However I can show you Hippos and Reindeer in the College[?].

I am | My dear Sir | Yours truly | W. Boyd Dawkins [signature]¹
