Letter 12036 — Darwin, C. R. to Darwin, G. H., 7 May [1879]

Summary

A big book arrived for GHD before CD left Down. Hopes it is Thomson and Tait [Treatise on natural philosophy, 2 vols., 2d ed. (1869)]. It shows what they think of GHD.

Thinks it grand if GHD has made a correction about “such an old sinner as the Sun” and hopes his arithmetic on his old subject will turn out right.
