My dear Wallace

You were away when I was at Bournemouth & I am afraid I am not likely to be in your parts again at present.

If anything brings you up to town, will you [2] let me know & come to us for a night? It is a long while since I have had the pleasure of seeing you.

Believe me | yours very sincerely | John Lubbock1 [signature]

A R Wallace Esq FRS
