From T. H. Huxley 2 July 1878
July 2. 1878
South Kensington
My dear Darwin
My friend Marsh of Yale is over here & wants badly to see you1
He is a right good fellow & just the sort of man you would like— So if you are well enough to be bothered with strangers I put in a plea for him
His address is Palace Hotel, Buckingham Gate
I am just back from Margate. Madge is slowly mending & I begin to hope we are safe from the after consequence of diphtheria—2 I trust we shall all be together again on Sunday week
Don’t answer this | Ever | Yours very faithfully | T H Huxley
