To John Murray 26 [December 1859]
Down Bromley Kent
26th
My dear Sir
I have this day run my eye over last proof of the new Edition & returned it to Messrs Clowes— So that nothing but printing off & binding remains.—
I suppose that you have remembered the Plate or Diagram: it would be well to give caution about the copies being printed clearly.
Yours sincerely | C. Darwin
Please remember the remaining clean sheets to “Prof. Asa Gray, Cambridge, Massachussetts U.S.—”1
Footnotes
