South Kensington,

Dear Mr. Wallace,

I am shocked to find that your letter has remained so long unanswered, for I can assure you a letter from you will always give me pleasure; and I need not say how much I sympathise [2] in the object you have in view.

I am sorry, however, that it would not be possible for me to move the resolution that you suggest; but if possible I will try to be present at the your meeting and shall have much pleasure [3] in hearing the discussion and more particularly your own speech.

I remain, | dear Mr. Wallace, | yours sincerely | Helen Taylor [signature]
