Dear Sir

As your Society possess the series of letters from Dr. R. Spruce2 to Daniel Hanbury3, I make no doubt you will be glad to have those written by Mr. D. Hanbury to Spruce[.] Mr. M. B. Slater of Malton, Yorks[hire], who is Dr. Spruce's sole executor, has empowered me to send you those letters, which serve to illustrate and complete those of Spruce, and which I therefore send you herewith.

Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
