My dear Violet²

I enclose you Will’s³ last letter — Send on to Hurst⁴ when read.

Supposing by an extraordinary accident Mrs. Greck⁵ knew the agent, would he tell her all his criminal secrets, even to details of bribes & their amounts? She lives in S.W. of London far from the East & is occupied all day. [2] How she should get this knowledge which would [have] taken a clever detective probably months at unlimited expense is to me inconceivable.

However no doubt it would be the theory of those who know nothing of Spiritualism.

I sent you a copy of American Fabian. There [3] is a para in it about Sand for Children in Parks!

Adieu | Your affectionate Pa | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

I have heard of the Gorge, but I think it is not water-worn throughout
