My dear Hooker
Henrietta is so unwell or rather I fear I shd. say ill, that we do not go to London tomorrow. Probably not till Monday, but I will let you know when, for the chance of your coming to luncheon.2 Dr. Andrew Clarke is coming here this evening, & we shall then know what he thinks about her.
Many thanks for the seed.—3
Yours affect. | C. Darwin
