The Literary Guide:

A Rationalist Review.

(Established 1885.)

17, Johnson’s Court,

Fleet Street, London, E. C.

September 23rd, 1898

Dear Sir,

I have not yet heard from your former pupil, Dr. Gadow, whether he will allow me to publish your Cambridge address in the Agnostic Annual. I have offered £5–5s. for the right of publication, though Professor Huxley and others, knowing the uphill work in which I am engaged, declined to receive any honorarium.

I should be grateful if you would advise Dr. Gadow that you would like him to send me the MS. We publish the Agnostic Annual shortly, and time is pressing.

Faithfully yours

Charles A. Watts

Professor Ernst Haeckel
