Summary:

ARW mentions CR's letter of about a week or two ago about carbonic-acid gas in glacier water, but ARW is writing his article and may not need ?information? He mentions the son of a friend, on a geology course, but in poor health; could he be with Ordinance Surveyors in the field? He is very keen on geology.
