To W. D. Fox 22 February [1857]
Summary
Helix pomatia is quite healthy after 20 days’ submersion in salt water.
On peas, the evidence is on WDF’s side, but CD cannot see how they can avoid being crossed.
He is working hard, wishes he "could set less value on the bauble fame"; would work as hard, but with less gusto, if he knew his book would be published forever anonymously.
