To Williams & Norgate 13 April [1874]
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
Ap. 13th
Dear Sir
I enclose a cheque.—1
I am aware that I often give you an unreasonable amount of trouble, but if it is possible to get odd numbers of the “Flora” (German), I very much want nors. 28 & 29 of the year 1873.2 Or if necessary half a volume for the year.— Pray help me as far as you can
Yours sincerely | Ch. Darwin
If the book is not very expensive I wd have if necessary the whole vol. for the year 1873.
