Summary:
ARW returns the papers C. R. lent him. The paper on Spitzbergen was very instructive, to do with the rapid motion of glaciers and occurrence of ?re-eddies which Bonney denies. The paper on Skye is more puzzling. PS Owing to terrible drought, April-August, none of the Acer seeds came up, nor seeds of Cornus nuttallii.
