Sheen Lodge

Richmond Park

16 September 1878

My dear Wallace,

I have great pleasure in fulfilling the wish with which you have favoured me.

I wish it were something less easy & more demonstrative of my good will. I hope [2] to hear of your success.

I grieve, with you, that 'Heatherside' has not had the success its able planter hoped for.

Believe me, | always truly yours, | Rich[ar]d Owen [signature]
