Gulls' Eggs. 

 Dear Sib^ — I am glad that Mr. Jourdain has corrected 

 ■what appears to have been an error on my part in this 

 connection in 'The Ibis' for 1917 (p. 272). Living at "the 

 back of beyond " and far from museums and oologists, 

 I relied rashly, but, I thought, safely, on the literature of the 

 subject I happened to possess myself.
