Abstract
WITH reference to a just complaint made by “R. M.” in his article contained in NATURE for July 1 (p. 190) about the want of good indexes to books, and specially to the early editions of Kirby and Spence's “Introduction to Entomology,” may I venture to inform him that should an index to the latter book be desired by “R. M.” or any other reader of NATURE, they have only to apply to “E. E. J.,” Camerton Court, Bath, to obtain one gratis. I found the book so perfectly useless for want of one, that I made one some years ago, a copy of which was accepted by the British Museum authorities, and is now included in their Catalogue. I have a good many copies on hand, which I am always glad to give away on application.
