Chiselhurst

Jany 24. 1874

Dear Mr Wallace

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

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