To C. V. Riley 30 May 18751
Down, Beckenham, Kent
My Dear Sir
I received this morning your seventh annual Report, & am very much obliged to you for having so kindly sent it to me.2 As far as my memory serves me I did not thank you for that last report, but there is not one which you have published in which I have not found much matter which has interested me greatly [. . .]3
Believe me my dear Sir. | Charles Darwin
