From J. D. Hooker 24 June 1869
Summary
Recounts the trip back from St Petersburg – visits to botanic gardens and museums throughout Western Europe.
Pleased that CD admired Bentham’s address [see 6793]. JDH had read it in MS and modified some very heterodox passages about insularity. CD has hit the flaw in it.
F. A. W. Miquel is a convert.
