Description | The esteemed Fellow, Mr Henry Elwes (the distinguished Naturalist) is starting for a prolonged journey in Russia for the purpose of exploring the Zoology of the upper valley of the Yenisei. Being 13 years since Elwes was in St Petersburg, he is concerned that he will now meet few of the men in science whose acquiantance he then made, in particular Dr Regel.
