Dear Mr. Sims¹,

Yours just received. I enclose 2 dozen stamps for postages you have paid & to come.

Do you remember ever hearing Fanny² say if she knew what was the profession or trade of her Grandfather Greenell? He died when Fanny was 12 years old, & she may have seen him before going to Usk. Anyhow she would hear from another what he was. I have tried to get it from Herford, but [2] have failed.

The old Elizabeth house you have sent the drawing of but there is not a word on it to shew[sic] where it was; — but it is not of much importance.

Any early letters of my brother William would be most useful to me. I should think my mother would have kept some.

In haste | Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
