My dear Wallace,

As I can answer your letter much more satisfactorily viva voce than by any written document, I would suggest that you should take a Mid Kent Train from the Addiscombe Road Station to Catford Bridge— & come here. I shall be at Sa leisure on Friday next & should be very glad to see you any time after 10 a.m.

There is a train leaves Addiscombe Road at 9.40, which gets to Catford Bridge [2] at 10 & a train from Addiscombe Road at 10.27 which reaches Catford Bridge at 10.38.

This house is about 1 miles [sic] from Catford Bridge.

Stainton, Henry Tibbats (1822-1892). British Entomologist. Secretary of the Entomological Society of London 1850-52; Secretary of the Linnean Society 1869-74; Secretary of the Zoological Record Association 1871-86.
