Dear Dyer
I have received another copy of Duchartre, which I suppose you have very kindly sent me, as being the 2d. Edit.2 It shall be returned in a few days or week.— It is almost split (& so arrived) into 2 parts, & I hope that this accident was not caused by its journey.—
Ever yours sincerely | Ch. Darwin
The other copy was returned about a week ago.—
