Dear Sirs

The Rev. Mr. Hillyer will leave my house in Rosehill on Tuesday afternoon next, and I have arranged for him to pay a half-week's rent for the accommodation. There is also a sum of s10/- agreed to be paid for the coals left in the house, which I shall be obliged by your receiving with the rent. I propose to return to Dorking on Tuesday evening.

Yours truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
