Abstract
A letter to Edward Hitchcock in which Hannah A. Smith, Jane Smith, Debbie F. Smith, and Sallie L. Smith thank Hitchcock for his work "The Religion of Geology and its Connected Sciences," but then go on to suggest edits to the work, such as a change in the title. They also criticize Hitchcock for using too many theories and fancies and not enough facts in the work. The Smiths further request that Hitchcock tell them the name of the author of a poem included in the book.
