… letters. I shall read with interest your Geographical discussion in M r Lubbock’s copy when he can purchase it. You ask whether I shall ever come to the U. States; I can assure you that no tour whatever could be half so interesting to me, but with my large family I do not suppose I shall ever leave home it would be a real pleasure to me to make your personal acquaintance. Believe me, my dear Sir with thanks & every good wish— Yours most sincerely | C. Darwin …
