</mods:physicalDescription>
<mods:abstract>A letter to Benjamin Silliman in which Edward Hitchcock thanks Silliman for a notice he printed in the American Journal of Science of Hitchcock's report on the geology of Massachusetts. Hitchcock informs Silliman of the various people to whom he has sent the report, and suggests how Silliman might obtain some copies of the report to send to Europe, since Hitchcock's supply of them is low.</mods:abstract>
