To Friedrich Rolle1 21 April 1866
Down, Bromley | Kent S.E.
April 21. 1866.
Dear Sir,
I write one line to thank you incesely2 for your great kindness in taking the time to inform me of so many interesting publications. Some of which as that on Rissoa and Virchows work I must procure3
I suspected that Geinitz was opposed to me, but I hope that will not present4 him taking care in correcting Bronn’s translation5
I had nothing wathever to do with the selection as this lay entirely withe the Publisher of the German edition
We have I6 yet heard positively that Prof. Geinitz will undertake the whole affair
With my respected and sincere Thanks
I remain, dear Sir | Your very faithfully | Ch. Darwin
