Frith Hill, Godalming,

July 28th. 1885

My dear Meldola1

We have been & are still in a state of uncertainty as to our movements this autumn not having yet let our house, but having had a nibble may catch our fish this week. If we do not let perhaps I, & Willie,2 may go for a week or two’s excursion somewhere & would be very glad of your company. Can you come here from Saturday to Monday, as we shall then know our fate & can arrange something.

Yours faithfully| Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
