GE to Barbara [Mme Eugene] Bodichon, London, 16 May [1877]
MS: Mr. Philip Leigh-Smith. Address: Madame Bodichon | Poor House, Zennor | St. Ives | Cornwall. Postmark: LONDON-N.W | C I | MY 16 | 77. Hitherto unpublished.
P. N.B. May 16.
Several names for the Water-Wagtail current in Italian: Cotremola, Cod'e9ta, Ballerina, Monachina, Cutr'e9ttola. Probably the commonest are Ballerina and Cutr'e9ttola, since they are specified in the ordinary dictionaries. The last, perhaps, would be the one to choose.
