Chiselhurst1

Jan[uar]y 24. 1874

Dear Mr. Wallace

I have jotted down, in answer[?] to y[ou]r queries a few points about which I am pretty certain. But the whole[?] subject is too big to settle off[?] hand.

The [1 word illeg.] Asiatic genera I have not rigidly[?] gone in to but my general assertions I think may apply[?] to them.

Y[our]s Sinc[erely][?] | Walden. [signature]
