My dear Darwin
How can I thank you sufficiently for the trouble you have taken with the peas, which arrived last night in beautiful order.1 You must let me know when we next meet, if there is anything I owe you for payments of any kind connected with them. Will you in the mean time, give the enclosed 10s. (I send an order made out in your name) to the gardener, from me?— & tell him that I am much obliged for his care.2
Ever yrs. | Francis Galton
Romanes has told me much of his wonderfully interesting results with the Medusæ.3
