My dear Sir,
I must write a line to thank you sincerely for the official & for your private note, both of them extremely kind.1 I much wish that the weather had been better, & then perhaps I could have made the visit more agreeable to your members. I was very tired in the evening, but none the worse next day.
My dear Sir | Yours very faithfully | Charles Darwin.
