My dear Sir
One line to say that I have returned home, with some benefit to my health & much good to my daughter’s.—3 I am in no hurry, but when ready you can return my M.S.—4 Kindly take the trouble to register it, & mark it “a M.S for printing”— The string had better pass over the ends of parcel.
My dear Sir | In Haste yours sincerely | C. Darwin
