Frederic Harrison¹ Esq.

Dear Sir

I have just finished reading your splendid article in the Fortnightly, and I cannot resist the pleasure of writing to thank ^you for speaking out so plainly, so thoroughly, and so wisely, in the present great crises.

I sincerely hope that the liberal party, & especially Mr Gladstone² & the Ministry, may rise to the height of [2] their great opportunity and give full consideration to the various dilemmas & suggestions you have so clearly set before them.

With the greatest respect & admiration,

I remain | yours very Sincerely | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
