Ap. 27th.
My dear Sir
You will remember that you twice allowed me to call on you early in the morning & gave me valuable advice & other help.2 Now I want much to ask you two questions, which at the utmost will not take more than of hour. Will you be so kind as to let me come again & fix any morning of the next few days3 i.e. on Saturday, or Sunday, or Monday or Tuesday. We go back home early on Wednesday.?
Yours very sincerely | Ch. Darwin
