[1]1

Crooksbury

Farnham, Surrey.

Sept. 30th 1900.

Dear Sir,

It would be impossible for me overwhelmed as I am at the present moment with political business to enter into anything like a general discussion of the matter referred to in your letter2 of the 26th which reached me this morning.

I think however I had better tell you that I am not prepared to vote for the total abolition of the Compulsary Vaccination Laws. though I will do everything in my power to obtain for those who object on principle the considerate treatment which they are entitled to and which at times I am fraid [sic] they have not received at the hands of the Magistracy.

I am, Dear Sir, | Yours Faithfully | AW Chapman.3 [signature]

Alfred R. Wallace. Esqr.
