The London Skull

Abstract

I AM very grateful to Mr. Bromehead for directing my attention to the evidence for identifying the London Terraces. In reply to his query on what grounds I assign the deposit at Lloyd's to the Low Terrace instead of the Middle, I can only say that I have never claimed any competence to decide the geological points at issue; but, as I have already stated in public and in print on several occasions, have taken the opinions expressed when the ulna of the woolly rhinoceros (from the same level in the blue clay at Lloyd's) was exhibited at a meeting of the Zoological Society last March.
