Thanks for notes on worm-castings. Amount of ammonia surprises CD. David Forbes asserts that published analysis of carbon in vegetable matter valueless. Suspects that worms search for food and do not blindly swallow earth.
Thanks for valuable information [about worms?]. "The more I investigate the extreme amount of work effected, the more perplexed as yet I become."
Thanks for enclosures.
Remembers Edward Vivian.
Glad to hear of flint tools.
