Dear Miss Whiting1

I do know your name, but I have not read any of your books, having indeed no time (or inclination) to read all the books sent me with other literature that accumulates.

I am here 110 miles from London, and if you care about coming so far I shall be pleased to see you & talk on Psychic matters &c.

I am only 10 miles from Bournemouth which is one of our health resorts, which you might like to see, & also there are Christchurch Abbey [2] and Corfe Castle, both near it, & fine examples of the work of our old builders.

I am always at home now. Any afternoon except Tuesday (which is our "at home" day) would suit me.

Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

Lilian Whiting (1859-1942). American journalist and author.
