Frith Hill, Godalming.

Septr. 24th. 1884

My dear Meldola1

As I see you are engaged for Saturday week at Epping Forest will you come here next Saturday till Monday morning; & if you bring your sugar bottle perhaps a few moths may be had, as some red-underwings were taken by Willie’s2 friend John Benson in their garden a fortnight back.

Hoping you & your mother are quite well.

Believe me| Yours faithfully| Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
