Mr G. Wallace Esq.

My dear Sir,

Enclosed please find the picture of your father, a Eulogy on his native land when he was in a Para, South America also, a part of an Editorial written by a great man Rev[erend] A. B. Simpson² of New York, Editor of the "Church Alliance"[.]

Two of my friends saw in a New Orleans daily paper, that Prof[essor] W. A. Wallace, had been knighted[,] so that article (which none of us could even find) said that Sir A. R. was a contemporary of "Charles Darwin" but you will find all you desire in the Paragraph 9 enclose[d][.]

Please send me a copy of the [2] Book, Letters, and Remains of of [sic] Dr. or Sir A. R. Wallace. I am fond of reading and will prize a copy.

My compliments and regards to your Mother & Sister. Tell them it has given me pleasure to do whant I have, to help you in your laudable offer to preserve the memory of a dear one.

I am your sincere friend | Mrs Mary Haggar [signature]
