LS signed “Ch. Darwin,” one page both sides, 4.25 x 7, Down letterhead, August 29, 1871. In part: "The most convenient time for your clerk to come here tomorrow (Wednesday) will be by the train which leaves Charing Cross at 5.5 or Cannon St 5.15 arriving at Orpington at 5.47, where I hope he will take a fly for the four mile drive. A suitable train to return will be the 8.20 from Orpington. I hope these hours will not be inconvenient." In very good to fine condition, with light toning, and the signature, evidently once removed, held in place with small pieces of old tape.
