Comments on DM’s ["Drift deposits of west of England", Q. J. Geol. Soc. Lond. 35 (1879): 425–55].
DM may show CD’s letter [to the Royal Society].
Pleased that his old paper should have stimulated DM to such excellent work.
DM is highly gratified by CD’s opinion of his labours on boulders [see 12252]. He owes his start on this subject to CD. Since 1843 he has supported CD’s views on transportation of boulders by ice.
