My dear Darwin

Inclosed I send the draft of the memorial but a hard piece & much alteration in the last as struck me on re-reading it.

Also the list of people [2] to send it to which I wrote out as we were talking

I don’t think your suggestion about Aberdare cutting up rough worth one single straw-so I tell you-but perhaps it is better to have the thing in the ordinary [3] fashion

Ever | Yours very faithfully | T H Huxley [signature]

I send this on spec to Queen Anne Str.
