Letter to James Cossar Ewart from J.U Duerst, 21 October 1910

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/16/23
Scope and Contents

Duerst writes that he has molars from heavy horses but not from Westeregeln or Thiede, and recommends that Ewart contact Professor Dr Hesse. He has studied the skeleton of the Remagen horse only rapidly and believes it is possible that the metatarsel in question may belong to another specimen.
