My dear Sir
I thank you cordially for the present of your book, which I am particularly glad to possess & which I will read immediately, as cell-multiplication has always interested me greatly, & the subject of your last chapter at present concerns me much. It was very considerate of you to send me the French Translation, for I find that I am too old to improve so as to read German quickly & I have not much strength so as to read for a long time.1
With great respect, good wishes & thanks | I remain | Dear Sir | Yours very faithfully | Ch. Darwin
