Abstract
A letter to Edward Hitchcock in which Benjamin Silliman tells Hitchcock he is traveling soon and would like to visit Hitchcock if possible. Silliman hopes to see Hitchcock's collection of geological specimens. He also alludes to a piece by Hitchcock in which he appears to defend himself as the founder of ornithichnology, saying he doesn't think it necessary to publish because as far as he is concerned has not been challenged.
