Has now authoratative datum for height of Hawick Railway above the sea.
Memorandum: Remarks on Mr Kemp’s table.
Is about to send his manuscript to the printers, and asks for any late additions.
RC still wants some heights checked.
Thanks for the re-measurements. RC has found more interesting geology in Northumberland and County Durham.
Has received measurements of alluvial terraces at Crawford.
Surprised to receive WK’s measurements from Teviotdale.
RC’s rebuttal of claims that he had passed over WK’s part in the researches (Athenaeum, 23 September 1848, pp. 958–9).
A second attempt by RC to defend his conduct.
