To J. V. Carus 17 February [1867]
Summary
CD thinks JVC’s preface is fair to Bronn. Regrets JVC has not added notes of his own, but, having dropped Bronn’s appendix, it is perhaps best to leave the text without comment. Rejoices that the German public can now judge the Origin fairly.
Has written to W. B. Carpenter for a specimen of Eozoon to send to JVC.
