Feb. 12th 1879
My dear Sir
I thank you for your most kind letter which has interested me much in several ways, & for the gift of the Atlas.—1 In truth no praise can be too strong for these drawings, they are so wonderfully clear & instructive.
I rejoice to hear of the success of your Lectures & all your other success.2
I have not heard a word about H. Müller of Lippstadt & do not know to what you allude, but I will write to him.—3
Again accept my best thanks & believe me | Yours faithfully | Ch. Darwin
