I have been working steadily all day from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on shore Sketching, Botanizing, Zoologyizing , Anthroplogizing......If Bonny be a true foretaste of what Tropical Africa is to show me, I hardly dare measure the delight that is in store for me.....

Together with a group of letters written as a child, with drawings executed at the age of 3 years; a group written whilst a young man travelling in Europe, 1876-1880; a number written whilst travelling or on short term appointments, e.g. Suez 1895, Tunis 1897, Off Sierra Leone 1907; and a group written after his retirement from the consular service.
