John Scott
Date:
26 Oct 1872
Source of text:
Transactions of the Hawick Archæological Society (1908): 69
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.
