Down Bromley Kent
May 16th
My dear Hooker
Will you give me a meeting at Thatched House Tavern on Thursday at 5o oclock, as I want very much to ask you one or two questions.—1 I hope this will not be inconvenient to you.—
If I do not hear I will be there at 5o oclock.— I presume you will have done the horrid job of considering my M.S.—2 I am in no sort of hurry, more especially as I know full well you will be dreadfully severe.—
Ever yours | C. Darwin
