TitleLetter from W. F. Kirby, Hilden, Sutton Court Road, Chiswick, to A H White
CreatorKirby; William Forsell (1844-1912); entomologist and folklorist
Date16 September 1906
DescriptionKirby was surprised to see advance copies of the memoir [of George Bowdler Buckton] before he or Miss Buckton had seen any proofs. He now sends a corrected copy to remedy the errors and asks to see a revised version. He remarks on the correct form of Professor A W Hoffmann’s name; with or without ‘von’ and the correct citation for articles including one on bats in the Proceedings of the Linnean Society.
