“It is intended only to show such results of my geological observationB, 
as to the general character and economic resources and capacities of the 
district, as are considered definitely settled at the close of the field work, 
and it is intended to follow this brief statement with a more amplified and 
specific report in the future.” P. >27. •

“In the earlier part of this century several large fragments of metallic 
iron were discovered in the area now known as Texas, which have been 
given the collective name of The Texas Meteorites, and, both on account 
of their size and composition, are as interesting as any that have been 
found. Ais the history of the ifinding of these maisseis is not very well 
known, I propose to give a brief detail of it in this paper.” 
One of these fragments known as the Texas Meteorite, is in the Yale 
Museum, another is in the geological and mineralogical collection of the 
(University of Texas, and the third, at one time in the Texas State collec- 
tion, has disappeared.
