Letter (WCP111.111)

[1]

Broadstone, Wimborne

Novr.. 16th. 1905

My dear Will1

I sent the checque & received the Receipts from the "Scottish Widows" —

I now send you a cutting from Daily News of yesterday, in case you do not see it, — with a fine American mining-camp story — the "Sloccum [sic] Statue" — with the richest lot of Americanisms I have seen for a long time.

There is also a fine letter from Hyndman2, about as clear and clinching as anything I have read for a long time.

When do you think of coming [2] home? We shall be quite ready for you after next Monday. It looks as if we were going to have dry frosty weather for some time — Very hard frost last night, and East wind to day.

Your affectionate Pa | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

Wallace, William Greenell (1871-1951). Son of ARW.
Hyndman, Henry Mayers (1842-1921). British writer and politician.
