My dear Wallace

I send you an extract wch I think may interest you— I am sure the whole account in the Louvain Review would—

Mr Murial1 & I trust that you & Mrs Wallace2 have completed your transmigration [illeg.] & with warm regards I remain

Yours very truly | G. J. Mivart3 [signature]

P.S. The day after I called on you I recd a letter from Mr Guppy4 who is very anxious about you looking over his proof— On his request I called to stir up the publisher — it appears that in a few days the first 50 pages will be struck off—
