from each other, possibly in two hemispheres, though as yet the most 

 distant places in which the same meteorite has been identified are 

 Mexico and Kentucky.* 



The subject is an interesting one, and could be discussed at much 

 greater length than the limits of this paper will allow, but the only ob- 

 ject of this discussion has been to show that there is a wonderfully close 

 resemblance between the Prehistoric and Pallas iron, and that, though 

 the Prehistoric resembles the Kiowa County far more closely than 

 it does the Carroll County, yet there is no reason for regarding them 

 as identical. 



In this discussion the Harvard mass of the Kiowa County find has 

 been compared with another specimen from the same, described in a 

 paper previously quoted as if the two were identical, and, in closing, 

 the author would mention that he has had the opportunity of examin- 

 ing the various specimens in mass, and also the cut slabs placed side 

 by side, and they are unquestionably the same.
