28/354 [December 5th, 1859.] I forget whether you take in the "Times;" for the chance of your not doing so, I send the enclosed rich letter. See the "Times," December 1st and December 5th, 1859: two letters signed "Senex," dealing with "Works of Art in the Drift.") It is, I am sure, by Fitz-Roy...It is a pity he did not add his theory of the extinction of Mastodon, etc., from the door of the Ark being made too small. A postscript to this letter, here omitted, is published in the "Life and Letters," II., page 240.) LETTER 82. |
