Augt. 21. 1872
My dear Sir
I have desired the Heliotype people, to proceed with the printing off, of 2000 sets at once for ourselves.1
I have written to Appleton’s agent, to say the price of 1000 sets will be £75.0.02
I also answered Mr Koch & told him neither the Electros or Heliotypes would be despatched unless paid for in advance.3
I have also made arrangements for the Index & I suppose all the Sheets, you have returned for press, may be considered safe to begin upon.
Mr Murray4 returns from Scotland this week & I hope to get away, the end of next week.
Yours faithfully | Robt. Cooke
C. Darwin Esq
