Augt. 6 1872
My dear Sir
Herewith I enclose you Mr. Murray’s cheque (£315) for last edition of “Descent.”1
By all means write to Messrs. Appletons, as you propose. The stereotypes & Electros for £55.2 I wrote to their agent here to know if he had received any instructions & I enclose his reply.3
It is rather remiss of Mr McLeod.4 He has not sent me the price of the Heliotypes & he promised me that I should have it the following day. I will write him
In regard to foreign editions, our only desire is to carry out your own wishes; It will be as well to say £10, to every one for a set of the Electros.
I am My dear Sir | faithfully Yours | Robt. Cooke
Charles Darwin Esq
