The Dell, Grays, Essex.

Novr. 14th 1873

Dear Bates

Thanks for your note1. I shall be glad to undertake the revision of Darwin's "Descent of Man, —"2 always supposing Mr Darwin likes me to do it, & also that it is well paid for, as it will be a stiff job.

I shall be very glad to see & review Belt's Book3.

In haste | Yours very faithfully | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
