Abstract
I WAS somewhat surprised when reading Prof. J. W. Gregory's interesting article on “The Structure of the Great Rift Valley” in NATURE of October 6, p. 514, to learn that in my lecture to the Royal Geographical Society in 1921 I had thrown doubt on the fault origin of the Gulf of Suez. Fortunately, Prof. Gregory has mentioned the pages in which my views on this subject have been set forth, namely, the Geographical Journal, Vol. 58, pp. 267–271.
