Oct. 4th. 1878
Dear Sir
I must have the pleasure of thanking you for your kindness in having sent me your essay “on swarm-spores &c”, which I have just finished reading with great interest & admiration.1
I have been all the more interested as I have lately been making a few observations on ordinary heliotropic plants, although (as you remark) your case is very different.—2
With great respect, I remain | Dear Sir | Yours faithfully & obliged | Charles Darwin
