To R. F. Cooke 9 September 1879
Summary
Pleased that JM will allow two-thirds profits [on Erasmus Darwin] for he wants Krause to receive some profit.
He and his son [Francis] are preparing a large botanical work [Movement in plants], dry as dust, which he must publish on commission. He will be lucky to lose only £100.
