  • Emma has begun your book. — We here really have kept the Books you lent us for a most unreasonable time, but I hope soon to finish the Salt Lake, & Miss Thorley the Amazons. Certainly it was a most valuable loan of Books. Farewell, my dear Hooker, I hope to feel in the course of 2 or 3 months, when my cirripedes are all printed off, my shoulders light, like yours must now feel. Farewell | Your’s affectionly | C.  Darwin
