From G. H. Darwin to Emma Darwin [30 April 1879]1
Trin. Coll.
Wedn.
Dear Mother,
I send a heap of papers for Father about old Eras.2 I have searched for the D’s in the heraldic visitation of 1562 but do not find them.3
I also send some copy of my own M. S. which I shd. like put into my room.4
I go to Lond. today to the R. S Soirée;5 tomorr. I shall perhaps go to the Brit. Mus. & anyhow I must go to the dentist.
I think it is just possible I may come home in the afternoon without luggage— I shall either do so or else go to a theatre.
I have been very unwell but am getting better now.
Yours affec. | G H Darwin
