Dear Dr. Wallace,

I presume you will permit me to publish the two enclosed letters from yourself to the late Grant Allen2 in a thesis which I have just finished?

When shall we have that Autobiography at which you hinted when I returned you come old letters of yours to Bates?3

Yours faithfully | Edward Clodd4 [signature]

Dr. Alfred Russel Wallace.
