My dear M^r. Wallace

Your letter touches me deeply — There is no one in this world who more ought to have my dear Husband’s³ books than you. — I send them with joy to you, — mingled with regret that you did not have them from me long ago! — Forgive me. -

It interests me intensely to hear that your autobiography⁴ is in progress — How glad I am that, that monument will exist for [2] future generations. —

Your last great book⁵ is deeply valued in our household — My eldest son read it aloud to us — and has read it over and over again — & cares deeply for it. —

I want you to note the extraordinary depth of though[t] in many of the poems in ‘Fragments of Prose & Poetry’⁶ only a few can follow or understand & fully ^{appreciate them[.]} From Brute to Man⁷ — for instance is one that profoundly touches me,. — I shall come to Bournemouth some day — to see You — I need no greater inducement. There [3]⁸ are some interesting S[ociety]. [for] P[sychical]. R[esearch].⁹ things I should like to tell you of privately. —

Believe me | Most sincerely yours | Eveleen Myers [signature]

P[ost]. S[criptum].

Tell me the name of your new house¹⁰. Will you do something for me and send me your photograph, — if you have a spare one.
