To J. D. Hooker [21 October 1847]1
[Down]
Thursday
My dear Hooker
Hurrah for the Chancellor of the Exchequer.—2 I write now to say that I go tomorrow to Shrewsbury & do not return, as I mentioned in my previous note, till the 4th of Nov. Would Saturday the 6th of Nov. do for you & Falconer? You propose Saturday week; I grieve that I shall not be at home.— Do endeavour your best to arrange it for the 6th with Falconer: we will dine late.— My direction for next week will be simply C. Darwin | Shrewsbury.
Yours affectionately | C. Darwin
