My dear Huxley

We have both been bad & trying for a week to come to London, & start today.² I had intended being in London on a Sunday so as to pay you my morning visit, but this is now doubtful.—³ I have nothing particular to say, but sh^d. very much like to see you for $\frac{1}{4}$ of hour.— Will you therefore let me have a Post card, soon telling me at what hour you generally reach Jermyn St,⁴ & let me call there some early day at an early hour.

Ever yours | Very misanthropically | Ch. Darwin

If tomorrow would suit you, I w^d try & call.— But if tomorrow inconvenient I w^d call another early day.
