To William Buckland [November 1840 – 17 February 1841]
Summary
He encloses an unidentified paper received from R. I. Murchison the previous day.
Is unable to provide information about Dr Du Gard.
Appreciates the maps of Glen Roy sent by WB. Would welcome the opinions of WB and Louis Agassiz concerning the parallel roads but cannot give up the idea of their marine origin.
