Dear Sir

Many thanks for sending me your valuable account of the English Lakes2 with their beautiful & instructive maps. It is very useful to have a separate copy for reference.

Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

P.S. I send you copy of my article on "Language"3 which you can give to the Society if it is worth placing in the Library. A.R.W.
