Broadstone, Wimborne.

August 12th 1905.

Miss Casey

My dear Olive,2

Many thanks for the photo. which is very nice & will do beautifully.

Some day, perhaps, we will have a strong table taken into the field, or even a platform on posts made 6 — 7 feet high at the best point, so as to show more of the East side & front door. But without such elaborate preparations yours is I think the best possible view that can be had.

Thanking you and Bertie3 very much for the great trouble you have taken.

Believe me | Yours very sincerely | Alfred R. Wallace.
