Dear Sir

I beg to submit to your kind notice the enclosed theoretical statement, and to ask you if the correspondence between linear measures in yards, feet, and inches and measures of [1 word illeg. struck through] arc have been [2]3 noticed by you, and what could be the explanation.

I find Mexican temples as true to type, in this respect, as those in Glamorgan which have furnished the evidence outlined in the enclosed paper.

I remain, | Yours faithfully | John Griffith4 [signature]
