Sept. 3—
My Dear Sir
My Partner M Cooke before leaving home for his holiday had increased the order for Heliotypes to 8,000.!—2
I have attended to the Dutch man— His plates must be on larger paper & will probably cost a little more—3 Mr Schweitzerbart has paid for his supply down.4 I have attended to your instructions touching Dr Anton Dohrn.5 I beg to enclose a cheque for £34.2.6—the sum expended by you on Artists—6
I agree to your proposal of £50—instead of £55—as the charge for Stereotype text & Cuts for Appleton7
I remain My Dear Sir | Yours very sincerely | John Murray
Chas Darwin Esqr
