DARWIN MEMORIAL VOLUME OF ESSAYS

EDITOR: A. C. SEWARD, BOTANY SCHOOL, CAMBRIDGE

Febr. 2. 1909.

Dear Professor Haeckel,

I now send a proof which has been read by Mr. McCabe & by myself. Please let me have it again as soon as you conveniently can as I am anxious to go to Press.

On page 10 I have substituted the words „expressed his disapproval in strong terms“ for the quotation from Darwin’s letters. I very much hope you will not object to this: in a Memorial Volume I am anxious not to include anything which may give pain, or which might give a wrong impression of Darwin as a Man. I feel sure, that you will realise why I have ventured to make the alteration.

Kindly note the head-lines tot he right-hand pages which I have suggested.

I am

Your very truly

A. C. Seward.
