9th. Decr. 1879
My dear Sir,
I greatly regret that I had not the good fortune to be here to-day at the time of your visit—1 The work of the Geological class does not commence till February, after the Biological course closes.
I hope that on some future occasion I may have the opportunity of showing you the arrangements we are making here to teach Geology practically in the field & the laboratory as well as in the lecture-room.2
I greatly rejoice to hear from Prof Huxley3 that you are so well in health—
Believe me to remain, | Yours very faithfully, | John W. Judd
Charles Darwin Esq
