Dear Sir,
I still feel reluctant to risk the journey for the small chalk drawing of Mr. Darwin as a child— as it is a special material which will not bear much shaking. It is by Sharples—
I will write again definitely before long—
[1v]
I am indifferent about the amount of the Insurance unless it [illeg] more care in the journey & unpacking.
yours faithfully
K.E.S. Wedgwood
