To J. D. Hooker [25 March 1847]1
Down
Thursday
My dear Hooker
I am so stomachy today that I have not heart or courage for the exertion of London & Kew.— I hope & trust I cannot have put you to any inconvenience.
Thanks for your note yesterday; I will in two days get all my Nulliporæ together & send them by next Carrier, ie Wednesday night to Mrs Reeve.—2
I shall be up to the Geolog. on the 14th of April & shall stay in London, if able, some days for I have much to do & will then come to Kew for a day.
Ever yours | rather wretchedly | C. Darwin
