Dear Darwin
I returned last night, leaving Huxley at Baden Baden really remarkably well.—1 By all means let me have the plants to name whenever you please.2
I should very much like to see you this Autumn, one Sunday, bringing Strachey with me & taking lunch & the chance of you being well enough to see us. I am engaged next Sunday this day week)— would the following do?— we should walk over from Orpington3
Ever yours affec | J D Hooker
