My dear Sharpe[,]

I am adding some notes to my ''Malay Archipelago'' for a cheaper edition. Will you be so good as to send me the names of the new species of Birds of Paradise to be added to my list at p. 570 of my book, with the localities of each. I have no book here giving the information or would not trouble you.

Yours very truly[,]

Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

R. B. Sharpe Esq.
