My dear Wallace,

I am sending you the materials of my lecture at Cape Town on Burchell1 with the new facts which sprang from the lecture itself. I think the early recognition of cryptic resemblance & mimicry will interest you, & I hope I have said enough to get know that he was a very remarkable insufficiently appreciated man.

With kindest regards | Sincerely | E. B. Poulton [signature]
