My dear Prof[essor]. Wallace:

I enclose an article published in today's New Your World.

I cannot give credence to the claim made or implied that this article was penned by you. As an ardent student of biology I am curious to see what you many say regarding this American (?) journalistic feat.

Very sincerely yours | Edw. Anthony Spitzka [signature]
