To Felix von Luschan 5 May 1873
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
May 5. 1873
Dear Sir
I thank you for your very obliging note & the present of your essays & the Photographs.1 The prominence of the superciliary ridge is certainly most remarkable; but in truth I am too ignorant on osteological points, for my opinion to be of any value, & therefore will not venture on any remarks.2
With my renewed thanks, I remain Dear Sir with my respect— yours faithfully | Charles Darwin
