My dear Wallace

Though I have nothing particular to say, I shd. very much like quarter of an hours talk with you. So if I do not hear to contrary I will venture to call about 10 oclock on Wednesday morning; & I shd think you will have finished breakfast at that late hour.

Ever yours | C. Darwin2 [signature]
