To W. E. Darwin [8 May 1862]1
6. Queen Anne St
Thursday
My dear William
a note from Hooker has been forwarded to me here from Down, in which he says he will soon write to you about your coming there.2 I had heard nothing of this; but the Hookers have just had all their Plate stolen & in consequence much bother with Police &c &c & this has delayed Hooker writing. I have been doing odds & ends in London & am now just starting for the Exhibition!!3
Yours | C. Darwin
