Abstract
I AM glad to find that Dr. Guppy has at last enabled us to get to the bottom—I cannot say to the foundation—of the story which was related by the Duke of Argyll on November 17 in last year, to the discredit of Prof. Bonney and the authorities of the Geological Society. It is now admitted that the paper, said to have been “offered to,” and “refused by,” the Society, never came before the President and Council in any form whatever; and that in fact the paper was not only never presented, but was never even written!
