From Francis Darwin to Ernst Krause 23 October 1879
Summary
CD thanks Krause for the errata.
CD is sorry to hear that Krause’s part will not appear in the French edition, and cannot believe that C.-F. Reinwald would be influenced by antagonism to the Germans. Reinwald always gives CD a small percentage on sales, and CD had intended to pass it on to EK.

To Ernst Krause 18 May 1881
Summary
Thanks EK for his article [on CD’s Movement in plants].
Admires EK’s wide interest in science. Would like to send him something to publish in Kosmos.
Fears his new book [Earthworms] will hardly do, but will send sheets when printed so that EK can decide whether any chapter or a part of one will serve. Victor Carus’s consent would be needed for publication in Kosmos, and CD will ask for it.

To Francis Darwin 2 June [1879]
Summary
Thanks for FD’s letter describing microscopic work under experienced supervision.
Is glad to hear of C. E. Stahl’s objection to treating plants as mere machines.
Pleased that J. von Sachs has yielded on growth.
Perhaps Stahl will recognise whether the case of the silver fir is the same as that referred to in the German account [see 12074b].
CD has finished the first draft of his essay on Erasmus Darwin’s life and is "heartily sick of the job".

To J. V. Carus 29 June 1881
Summary
CD will soon finish corrections [of Earthworms] for printer, and then clean sheets will be sent to JVC for translation of the book and to Ernst Krause. The subject has been a "hobby-horse" with CD, and he has perhaps treated it in foolish detail. Has told Krause he does not think any part of the MS suitable for Kosmos, but Krause must decide.
