Abstract
IN NATURE (vol. xxvii. p. 578) which I have just seen, the Duke of Argyll calls your attention to the so-called human footprints uncovered in the prison yard at Carson, Nevada. I have carefully examined these tracks, and read a paper on the subject before the California Academy of Science, August 27, 1882. Unfortunately the Proceedings of the Academy have not yet been published, though copies of the several papers on this subject have been printed and privately distributed. Perhaps a brief account of these tracks will be interesting to your readers.
