Dear Professor Wallace,

Mr H. Stanley Redgrove,1 whose book "A Mathematical Theory of Spirit"2 we have just published, desires me to forward a copy to you on his behalf, and also enclosed letter.3 I know you are extremely busy, but if you have any spare time at your disposal and would give the book a very brief perusal, I should think it very kind on your part. I am sending copy of the current issue of the Occult Review herewith: I know you sometimes like to see the magazine.

Believe me, | Yours very truly, | Ralph Shirley4 [signature]
