My dear Lockyer1

As I understand you are one of the Examiners in Physiography for the Science & Art Department, I hope you will remember me if you are in want of assistant examiners this year. I assisted Prof. Anshey for several years, and I flatter myself that my knowledge of the principles of Physical science is such as to enable me to fulfill the [2] duties of examiner satisfactorily.

Believe me | Yours very faithfully | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

J.N. Lockyer F.R.S.
