Down, | Beckenham, Kent. | Railway Station | Orpington. S.E.R.
Dear Sir,
I have been expecting to receive my waggonette before this time & shall be much obliged to you to let me know when I can send for it.
Unless it is finished within a week, I should be glad if you would let me have a waggonette or phaeton meanwhile2
Yours faithfully | Ch Darwin
