To T. L. Brunton 25 September 1874
Down. Beckenham | Kent—
Sep. 25./74
My dear Sir
I suppose that you will now soon return home after your tour.1 I am extremely obliged for your information about the digestive action of pepsin with Hydrochloric acid on urea: the information will be even more useful to me than I had supposed.—2 You say in this same note of Sep. 4th. that you had succeeded in finding a photograph of Ruben’s picture & you add “I now send it”: but I am sorry to say it has never reached me & if posted must have been lost.3
With many thanks | my Dear Sir | Yrs. Sincerely | Ch. Darwin
