Dec. 8th

Dear Sir

I read your essay on the very curious new Cirripede with extreme interest, & was very much obliged to you for having so kindly sent it. I am at present so much engaged on other subject that I will not accept your offer of sending me microscopical preparations.1

With my best thanks. Dear Sir | Yours faithfully Ch. Darwin
