Down, Beckenham, Kent | (Railway Station | Orpington. S.E.R)
Nov. 6, 1881.
My dear Sir
I am much pleased at the sale of my books.1 I suppose that you will have more of the Worm-book printed off, and I beg you to send me a set of sheets of the last reprint, as I must make a few more corrections and additions.2 I will, if possible, avoid breaking up many sheets.
Yours very sincerely | Ch. Darwin
