My dear Miss Chant1

A friend has asked me for one of your photos. of myself, like those which he saw at Mr. Dracopoli's2 & also at Mr. Buckton’s3 of Haslemere, to both of whom I think you supplied them.

Please send it me as soon as you can. I believe it is the grinning one which everybody likes so much!

yours very faithfully | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
