From J. W. Judd 28 August 1880
14 Auriol Road, | West Kensington | W.
28th. August 1880
Dear Mr. Darwin,
I send you by book-post a copy of Whitaker’s paper on sea-cliffs & Escarpments.1 As I have a duplicate copy, please not to trouble to return it. I hope the fatigue of conversation yesterday has not left any ill-effects.2 To me it is such a pleasure to listen to the words of suggestion and sympathy from a father in Science, that I fear I may have forgotten the danger in my eagerness at the time.
Yours very faithfully, | John W. Judd
