To Lawson Tait 8 October 1871
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
Oct 8 1871
Dear Sir
I do not know any thing about a supra-condyloid process in the humerus; yet I have a vague remembrance of having heard of it.1 But my knowledge of anatomy is quite insufficient to be trusted.
If you publish on this subject I shd be grateful for a copy of your paper—2
Dear Sir | yours very faithfully | Ch. Darwin
