Dear Newton2

Will you oblige me by looking over the enclosed few paragraphs on "Migration of Birds"3— pp. 20 — 29— note any important errors or omissions & return to me at once. Having begun printing I hope to go straight on so as to be out early next year.

Yours very faithfully ǀ Alfred R. Wallace. [signature]
