To V. O. Kovalevsky 18 September [1872]
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
Sept. 18
My dear Sir
Thursday (tomorrow) will suit me excellently.— As my head always fails me in the afternoon (when I have to lie down) will you be so kind as to come by the Train which leaves Charing X at 2o. 35’ & reaches Orpington at 3o 11. There is a return train which leaves Orpington at 6o 52’, & we can send you to the Station, so that you wd. have to leave this house at 6o, 5’ or 10’.— There is another train at 8o. 24’ but then you wd not have time to eat your dinner here.—1
Yours very sincerely | Ch. Darwin
