Peckham
16. March 1870
My dear Mr Wallace
Many thanks for your kind invitation which however I believe I must decline. I appreciate the kind feeling that dictated the courtesy but I feel that the time for me to attend these social gatherings, has gone by.
Believe me, | Very faithfully yours, | Edward Newman1 [signature]
