Well

,

yes

;

I

propose

to

write

to

him

.

If

I

could

frame

the

letter

here

,

and

use

your

address

it

would

give

atmosphere

.

"

"

We

'll

have

the

fellow

round

here

making

a

row

and

breaking

the

furniture

.

"

"

No

,

no

;

you

'll

see

the

letter

--

nothing

contentious

,

I

assure

you

.

Well

,

that

's

my

chair

and

desk

.

You

'll

find

paper

there

.

I

'd

like

to

censor

it

before

it

goes

.

"

It

took

some

doing

,

but

I

flatter

myself

that

it

was

n't

such

a

bad

job

when

it

was

finished

.

I

read

it

aloud

to

the

critical

bacteriologist

with

some

pride

in

my

handiwork

.

"

DEAR

PROFESSOR

CHALLENGER

,

"

it

said

,

"

As

a

humble

student

of

Nature

,

I

have

always

taken

the

most

profound

interest

in

your

speculations

as

to

the

differences

between

Darwin

and

Weissmann

.

I

have

recently

had

occasion

to

refresh

my

memory

by

re-reading

--

"

"

You

infernal

liar

!

murmured

Tarp

Henry

"

by

re-reading

your

masterly

address

at

Vienna

.

That

lucid

and

admirable

statement

seems

to

be

the

last

word

in

the

matter

.

There

is

one

sentence

in

it

,

however

--

namely

:

'

I

protest

strongly

against

the

insufferable

and

entirely

dogmatic

assertion

that

each

separate

id

is

a

microcosm

possessed

of

an

historical

architecture

elaborated

slowly

through

the

series

of

generations

.

'

Have

you

no

desire

,

in

view

of

later

research

,

to

modify

this

statement

?

Do

you

not

think

that

it

is

over-accentuated

?

With

your

permission

,

I

would

ask

the

favor

of

an

interview

,

as

I

feel

strongly

upon

the

subject

,

and

have

certain

suggestions

which

I

could

only

elaborate

in

a

personal

conversation

.

With

your

consent

,

I

trust

to

have

the

honor

of

calling

at

eleven

o'clock

the

day

after

tomorrow

(

Wednesday

)

morning

.

"

I

remain

,

Sir

,

with

assurances

of

profound

respect

,

yours

very

truly

,

EDWARD

D.

MALONE
