Dear McLachlan1

I acted on Dunning's2 advice & I have some confidence in his judgment. Members of the Society have received letters from Hampden,3 & I wish them to know the facts.

1
McLachlan, Robert (1837-1904). British entomologist.
2
Dunning, Joseph William (1833-1897). British entomologist.
3
Hampden, John (1819-1891). British promoter of the Flat Earth theory.
