. At first Charles resisted all entreaties that Dr. Clark (afterwards Sir Andrew Clark, physician to Queen Victoria) be called because Dr. Clark always refused to take a fee and this was a great embarrassment to him; and he had no confidence in Dr. Moore. However, Emma wrote a tactful letter to Dr. Clark, who replied by telegram that he would come on 10th March but could only spare a half to three-quarters of an hour, during which time he must have some dinner! The visit, when it took place, was

She would often recall how they would cross the field known as Great Pucklands and on to the slope which is now part of the West Kent Golf Course, but must then have been

CHAPTER IV RELIGION AND THE CHURCH It may properly be asked why, in the story of Down House and the Darwin family, it should be necessary to enter into controversial matters. Unfortunately, Charles himself was the centre of, though no participator in, a public controversy of bewildering proportions and, furthermore, within his own family there were differences of opinion held with such moderation as not to upset, but undoubtedly to colour, the life of the family at Down. Emma was a practising

, it died of inanition. The kind of music that was available to him in the concert halls of the time demanded some concentration to appreciate; Charles required relaxation and this he found in novels. Today he might have been a selective but regular observer of some television programmes. I am sure he would not have missed an episode of The Forsyte Saga. We may well enquire what educational background led to this uncommon cultural atmosphere. In the case of Emma, little has been recorded of her

About a woman who murdered her mother, said Emma, whereat Jackson became convulsed with uncontrollable laughter.8 As Bernard says: In a less quiet or more worldly household he might not have kept his place, but he was a beloved creature. He made me a beautiful sentry-box in the orchard and a long tail for a kite and many other things I have ungratefully forgotten. He was a

remained long after the rest of the household had vanished. She was never much of a scholar and was probably taught to write by Emma when she first came into the household. Nevertheless, she kept up a faithful correspondence with the family, although this must have cost her a great deal of effort and she hampered herself by a somewhat antiquated and feudal style . At about this time, in addition to at least three menservants, we are told that Bernard's first timorous attempts at riding on the

Charles and Emma, and she felt unable to continue working in the house where she had been so much loved. She retired to Portsoy in Scotland, from where she used to pay long visits to Down until she died in 1873. There were, after 1851, no more new babies in the household and, although successors to Brodie must have been employed, we hear nothing about them. As the children grew up governesses were engaged instead. The accounts show that the year after Brodie left 60 was spent on a governess. This

Bob, a black and white half-bred retriever. This was the dog that used to accompany him round the Sandwalk and who put on a miserable expression when Charles would delay things by first of all pottering about in the greenhouse. Bob's hot house face has been immortalised in Charles' book, The Expression of the Emotions. In March 1870 Bob was taken ill and Emma writes to Henrietta, Poor Bobby is better to-day and has eaten a little. He looked so human, lying under a coat with his head on a pillow

He used to lay on Emma's bed whilst she breakfasted, but when Drury the postman arrived with the second post Dicky would rush down and insisted on accompanying him for a short way on his rounds, about the only time when he became separated from Emma.

entertaining would fall upon Emma and, as they were part of the family circle, this made few demands they looked after themselves. Emma, although perhaps not so sociable as Charles, was nevertheless infinitely kind and we have seen how in 1867 she took the seven Huxley children under her wing. Parties of visitors would from time to time make the pilgrimage to Down; these were often from Working Men's Clubs or charitable institutions. In 1880, for instance, fifty members of The Scientifics visited

. Emma was at first a good-deal disappointed at the country round the house; the day was gloomy and cold with N.E. wind. She likes the actual field and house better than I; the house is just situated as she likes, not too near nor too far from other houses, but she thinks the country looks desolate. I think all chalk counties do, but I am used to Cambridgeshire which is ten times worse. Emma is rapidly coming round. She was dreadfully bad with toothache and headache in the evening, but coming

Charles thinks that he can assure for each of his sons a sum which would make them secure for life financially, but , as he ruefully observes, of course my income may fall off a little . In 1853 he had set up a Trust for Emma, who was to retain Down House and surrounding land for life. In 1881 his brother Erasmus died and Charles was again seriously concerned about the disposition of his estate.

makes an attempt to reveal the personalities of Darwin and his wife Emma through a study of the house in which he lived for forty years and where he died.

It was felt that a brief description of the background of Down House might not be regarded as irrelevant and so Chapter I is devoted to the story of the land upon which the house was built, the village to which it brought fame and the early history of the building before the Darwins came to

Emma, who was in every sense a practising Christian, so this confrontation has no bearing on the religious convictions, or lack of them, in the Darwin family. When Charles died in 1882 the family wished to have him buried at Down, ffinden or no ffinden, but the able advocacy of Sir John Lubbock persuaded them that it would be only proper for this great man to be buried in Westminster Abbey. The letter to Dr. Bradley, Dean of Westminster, requesting this privilege was signed by twenty members

much concerned with the cutting of the pages.21 He hated to have to cut the pages of a book with a knife because the frayed edges collected the dust. In a letter to The Athenaeum in 1867 he thought that this was a habit to which he was forced by the conservatism of the booksellers, only less barbarous than that of a lady of his acquaintance who used her thumb. All the presentation copies of his own books had their pages machine cut. In regard to poetry, like Emma he admired Tennyson, but

When she played these for him, he vaguely recognised that he had heard them before. When young he went to quite considerable trouble to listen to music. At Cambridge he would go on weekdays to King's College Chapel to listen to the anthem and sometimes invited some of the choristers to come to his room

mulcted him of 52! If Charles was meticulous in drawing up his accounts, Emma was even more so and Table 4 opposite shows the major items of household expenditure in a family with seven children and, over the years, roughly the same number of servants to be fed. In 1879 Charles began to take thought for the disposal of his property on his death. Various scraps of paper are in existence at Down on which he has jotted down his thoughts, sometimes in pencil.

CHAPTER XI FATE UNCERTAIN After Emma Darwin's death in 1896 the fate of Down House property was in the balance and no doubt there was a great deal of discussion in the family circle about what should be done with it, although we have no records of this. However, a letter which is rather difficult to read from Sir Joseph Hooker, then aged 78, to Sir George Darwin, dated January 30th 1898, reveals that its fate was still undecided. My dear Darwin, I have over and over again thought over the
