To Ernst Krause 4 February 1880
Summary
Samuel Butler’s fierce attack on CD and EK in Athenæum. CD’s sentence saying that EK had altered his Kosmos article was accidentally omitted from second proofs. Butler insinuates that EK’s attack on his book was suggested by CD or interpolated by him in EK’s text.

Thanks EK for kind letter.
CD’s date on epitaph is a dreadful mistake. CD often overlooks errata.
