My dear Clement Reid
Many thanks for your kind offer to lend me the parts of G[eological] Mag[azine]1 and G[eological] Journ[al]2 cont[ainin]g articles on erosion &c. I shall be very glad to see them. James Leckie3 has sent me a brief but very effective reply to Aeppli4 about Lake Zurich for me to print. And Percy Kendall5 has procured me a lot of fine photos. illustrating glacial phenomena. So I am going in for getting illustrations for all my papers that can be illustrated, and I think it will be the first time that a lot of collected Review articles &c have been thus illustrated, & brought up to date. But it involves a lot of correspondence, & the [2] difficulty of getting really good photos is amazing.
Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
P.S. Give my kind remembrance to Mrs. Reid.6
