Manuscripts
A full transcription of the letter follows: "Dear Sir, I am obliged for your extremely courteous letter. It is of course a great satisfaction to me to hear that my work has in any way interested an interested and observing person. I am little surprised at what you say about certain plants not fruiting or flowering in the Sandwich Islands; though this is very common in hotter countries. There is nothing I shd enjoy so much as to visit California, but I am growing old & my health is weak. With my best thanks, I beg leave to remain Dear Sir Yours faithfully, Ch. Darwin. P.S. I am obliged for your enclosures." The letter, written from Beckenham, Kent, is dated May 5; no year is given.
