Dear McLachlan1

Will you be so good as to look over the enclosed proof on peculiar British Insects — Lepidoptera. I would sent it to Stainton2 but I do not know whether he is at home & I want to get on printing. You can note any corrections or remarks on the margin.

Yours faithfully| Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
