Dear Mr. Wallace2,
I have looked forward for some time to the pleasure of sending you the paper I read[?] in Paris in July last year3, replying to the offensive attack of an American named McAtee4. However the reprints were delayed until a few weeks ago. In the meantime we had a discussion on the subject at the Ent[omological]. Soc[iety]. (Now Royal Ent[omological]. Soc[iety].) Lond[on].5 on [1 word illeg.] 7 last, so I am sending [2] a reprint of that as well as the other: also a letter recently sent to the Ent[omological]. Soc[iety]. I have given your address to the writer, Herr Hornung6, & have sent him a copy of the Roy[al]. Soc[iety].7Obituary. If you can help him with information other than that supplied in the R[oyal]. S[ociety]. notice, I am sure he will be most grateful. I hope that you are well & flourishing & that your sister8 also is well.

On Sept[ember]. 30th we passed a formidable milestone in life — the marriage of a grand-daughter! She will be 21 in Jan[uary]. next & her train was held by her brother who will be 4 in Jan[uary]! In between are were 2 sisters, bridesmaids, & 2 brothers, ushers.
With kindest remembrances, | Yours sincerely, | E. B. Poulton10 [signature]
