From John Tyndall 8 March [1871]1
Royal Institution of Great Britain
8th March.
My dear Darwin
I wrote to your friend immediately, saw him, talked to him, and liked him. I thought he would probably tell you all this—otherwise I would have written to you.2
The subjects on which he spoke to me have often occupied my attention.
Yours ever | John Tyndall
