Description | Murchison correspondence: letter from Adam SEDGWICK, Trinity College, 20 May 1827*. Re: Is sending an example of Rothe Todte Liegende by coach, but has mislaid the other specimens for the moment; wishes to join Murchison on his trip to Scotland but jokes that he is 'out at the elbows' and Murchison is 'breechless' and are both specimens of denudation. |
