I have read the introduction and conclusion, which shows me the importance of the research as indicating the common basis of the infinitely varied habits and mode of growth of plants. The whole subject becomes thus much simplified, though the nature of the basic vitality which leads to such wonderful results remains as mysterious as ever. Yours very faithfully, Pen-y-bryn, St.

You see I had some reason for writing to you; but do not you trouble to write again unless you have something to communicate. With best wishes, yours very faithfully, I have not seen the Fortnightly yet, but will do so. Pen-y-bryn, St. Peter's Road, Croydon. October 11, 1880.

Your references to the Mauritius literature are very interesting, and will be useful to me; and again thanking you for your valuable remarks, believe me yours very faithfully, Pen-y-bryn, St. Peter's Road, Croydon. November 21, 1880. My dear Darwin, Many thanks for your new book containing your wonderful series of experiments and observations on the movements of plants.

In two or three weeks you will receive a book from me; if you care to know what it is about, read the paragraph in Introduction about new terms and then the last chapter, and you will know whole contents of book. Pen-y-bryn, St. Peter's Road, Croydon. November 8, 1880. My dear Darwin, Many thanks for your kind remarks and notes on my book.

I wrote also to tell the Duke of Argyll of the success, and he in answer expressed very sincere pleasure. My dear Wallace, yours very sincerely, Pen-y-bryn, St. Peter's Road, Croydon. January 29, 1881.

I hope that it will give you some satisfaction to see that not only every scientific man to whom I applied, but that also our Government appreciated your lifelong scientific labour. Believe me, my dear Wallace, yours sincerely, I should expect that there will be some delay before you receive an official announcement. Pen-y-bryn, St. Peter's Road, Croydon. January 8, 1881.
