My dear Sir
I send you 2 pages as Specimens for the Climbing Plants.1
No 1 is exactly the same page as Insectivorous Plants & will make 180 pages
No 2 is more spaced out & will make 192 pp & with the Index say 200 pp, & we might if you liked space it out a little more.2
Messrs. Clowes3 are prepared to put on all speed directly we know which you decide upon.
It is much better to use the same sized type for both works
Yours faithfully | Robt. Cooke
Chas. Darwin Esq
