Under Geography begin discussion on simple & Double Creations (was Schouw first on Double) & state Agassiz even, in my opinion injures his own case by Fish & Rivers—

Allude to case like Paris quadrifolia & to Lyells doctrine of intermedial extinction. Then state how many Botanists cannot believe in migration. Humboldt earnestly cautioned Hooker.— Then give general argument for & against —Then discuss single cases.
