| Creator | Darwin; Leonard (1850-1943); British eugenicist; economist; politician |

| Description | Apologises for not being able to attend a meeting in London and expresses a preference for discussing matters in person to avoid misunderstandings. Conveys the opinion that the surplus fund should be used to ensure the success of the exploration expedition. The suggestion is made to credit the money to the ordinary fund of the expedition, or if not possible, to earmark half for publications and hand over the other half to Sir Edgar Speyer for the fund. |
