Paper covers from subject files with titles in William Greenell Wallace's? hand and some annotations in his or another's hand, of letters from A. R. Wallace to his family covering dates 1897-1909. The classification and arrangement of letters by subject was probably by WGW on behalf of James Marchant, who includes extracts of many of these particular letters in Marchant, 1916. All of the letters, now incorporated into other series, have been annotated in an unknown hand, probably WGW's; passages relating to individual subjects marked in blue pencil and in many cases passages not relating to this subject marked in red and an annotated "omit". Titles below are preceded by the dates of the letters originally contained:
1879-1892 - "General & domestic"
1891-1896 - "Gardening"
1891-1908 - "Houses and Building"
1891.04.29 - "Humorous"
1895-1913 - "Examined not wanted"
1896? - "Excursions"
1902-1911- "Political &c"
1903-1907 - "Books and Writing"
1904.09.01 - "Socialism"
1908.11-1909.01 - "R I lecture /OM/ Medals"
1909.02.23 - "Curious event &c". Notes: Richard Wallace (personal info 12/6/03) considers the hand too untidy to be either his Father's or Grandfather's; however it is written in large letters and probably quickly; I consider it very similar to both. The writing is not Marchant's (See letter from him to WGW 7 Dec 1913, WP2/6/1/1). When listed these were included in a large modern (1995) envelope (destroyed) labelled in RW (And Mrs R Wallace's? ) hands "Typed letters A. R. Wallace to Violet and Will | Reminiscences of R B Rathbone | [Ditto] WG & VI for Marchants Book".

Would they have been long and intimate letters | J M" with the following written beneath this in WGW's? hand: "Dr B Hollander Dr Littledale Rollo Russell G W Barrett only ones likely". Both notes on this side have been crossed through. Notes: When listed this was included in a large modern (1995) envelope (destroyed) labelled in RW (And Mrs R Wallace's? ) hands "Typed letters A. R.

Note:

Brown envelope addressed to W G Wallace, Old Orchard, Broadstone, Wimborne (Dorset) in the hand of F P Pascoe (junior?), annotated on the front in an unknown hand "New Species collected by A. R. Wallace described by Pascoe" and on the back in blue pencil in WGW's? hand "Description of some of A. R. Wallace collection by Pascoe"; stamped and postmarked 1913?, place illegible. Notes: Possibly originally enclosed letter from F P Pascoe (Junior?) to Mr Wallace, Jul 15 ( WP12/3/1); letter and envelope were in separate document wallets when listed but in context and given hand almost certainly belong together. The paper originally enclosed with the letter may be "Catalogue of Zygopinae . . " one copy of which was in the same wallet as the letter when listed.
