Dear Mr Darwin

I have also written to him about the use of his name, & told him that—if you do use it you or I will shew him the letter first2

[Enclosure]
Board of Trade S.W.
March 8. 80
Dear Farrer
I bring you the produce of my labours—£25. each from Mr. Charles & Mr. Alfred Morrison— £5. from Sir Julian Goldsmid & £5. from myself. £60. altogether.
I dont think more than £100. should be given to the Experimenter unless he can show good reason. It is his own time only that has to be paid for. Mess Morrison wd like to know result—& if you have anything written that I could show them on that point I should be glad. What is his name & address?
Believe me | Very truly Yours | James Caird
