[29 September 1893]1

Dr. Poulton2

Macmillan tell me they have no surplus copies of the coloured Map, so I hope you will be able to make the plain ones I sent you serve your purpose. I shd. think a much smaller outline map printed on cards about 6 in x 4 in — with the Regions coloured, wd. be very useful for fixing above every cabinet or case of insects for constant reference.
