Summary:
Acknowledges JS’s excellent letter of 25 September. May CD assume that the gigantic worm-casts were nearly circular when measured before the rain?
That a medical man should always have the place of superintendent seems a piece of jobbery.
Mentions [George] King.
JS’s thin paper renders some words on other side almost illegible.
