Abstract
IN reply to the letter of Mr. Vernon, in NATURE of the 18th inst., permit me to say that the confusion between the two Seathwaites is his, not mine. In the article to which he refers there is not a word about either Cockley Bridge or the Valley of the Duddon. His top graphical knowledge of the districts is, apparently, as inexact as his manner of reading; for he does not seem aware that “the Stye,” of which he speaks, is the name, not of a place, but of a rain-gauge, in, as I said before, the immediate neighbourhood of Stockley Bridge.
