To Charles Kingsley 6 February [1862]
Summary
Comments on CK’s letter [3426].
Identifies species of pigeon shot by party.
On CK’s "grand and awful" notion of genealogy of man, CD recalls how revolting was the thought that his ancestors must have been like the Fuegians. His present belief that they were hairy beasts is less revolting.
