Abstract
A set of letters from Edward Hitchcock printed in the Springfield Republican. One is a letter to the editor, and one is a reprinted letter to Henry I. Bowditch. The title "Dr. Hitchcock and Dr. Deane: Who First Scientifically Investigated and Described the Fossil Footmarks of the Connecticut Valley?" is printed across the top. Both letters are about the conflict between Hitchcock and Dr. James Deane about to whom the credit for discovery, investigation, and description of fossil footmarks in the Connecticut River Valley should be given. A few edits are written in the margins in pencil.
