Dear Sit,

I enclose copies of two letters written by Sir Francis Galton1 to my father bearing on the latters proposal for the establishment of an experimental farm to investigate problems of heredity &c. [.] You probably have my father's intermediate letter.

Yours faithfully | W. G. Wallace [signature]
