The origin of this iron is still in doubt, but to 
the writer it seems more anomalous as a 
meteoric than as a terrestrial iron. It seems 
desirable to class as meteorites only those 
known to be such, and hence, until confirma- 
tion of the meteoric character of this iron can 
be ere te it may well be classed as terres- 
trial. as
