Dear Dr. Venn1

Many thanks for the nice box of alpine plants you sent me. I found room for all of them. The St. Bernards’ Lily, Campanula macrorhiza, & Dryas octopetala were especially acceptable.

With kind remembrances to Mrs. Venn,2

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