eight inches in diameter. This hill is across the Cheyenne river 

 from our camp, above the mouth of Greasewood creek. I also 

 show you the skull of Tricerato-ps as it lies, hewn out of the grey 

 cross-bedded sandstone, ready to wrap with burlap, soaked in 

 plaster, so we can take it up ready for shipment. The horn-cores 

 are in sight, as well as the roof of the mouth, the eye socket under 

 the horn, and the nasal opening, the beak that was covered with 

 horn, etc. The frill had weathered out and lay in fragments, 

 mingled with the debris at the foot of the cliff. 



I might, in closing, mention the very fine tail we found of 

 Trachodon, the duck-billed dinosaur, as well as a second, contain- 

 ing the entire trunk region. This, with the loose bones we col- 

 lected, will enable the British Museum to make a very fine mount 

 of this great dinosaur, some thirty feet in length. I believe it is 

 the first specimen of a large American dinosaur to be mounted in 

 Europe, though a cast of the great Diplodocus carnegie was sent 

 to England, Germany and France, and the great specimen mounted 

 by the late Mr. Hatcher, its discoverer, in Carnegie Museum, at 

 Pittsburg. If we live, you will hear more of this barren region, 

 as we hope to enter that field as soon as the frost is out of the 

 ground.
