Dear Norris

Many thanks for the [1 word illeg.] of this letter of Mr Wallace's.

I fear that there is no probability of his being connected with [1 word illeg.] College, as M^r Alphonse has undertaken to assist M^r Johnson in some of the general work of the Colleges, as far as possible.[2] ]2 words illeg.] to send such a letter, for it is out of harmony with all my experiences in the [1 word illeg.] part — for men of such merit and capable of co-operating with others have appeared to me always to succeed in this life — sooner or later, & generally soon.

With kind regards | Yours very truly | T P Heslop [signature]

Dr. Norris
