DescriptionHe has been away from home and has just received Hardy's letter. He cannot get to his papers and replies from memory, giving what he thinks is the reference to the Third American Museum Mongolian Expedition. Andrews gave an account of his journey to the [Royal] Geographical Society, which will be in their journal. He is disappointed not to be able to attend the Royal Society Club meeting. In a postscript, Harmer notes the interesting results of the expedition in the evolutionary history of mammals and in dinosaur discoveries.
