IN the slow course of post in this Protectorate I have just received copies of the Times of September 3 containing Mr. R. G. Halliburton's paper on “Dwarf Races and Dwarf Worship,” and of September 14 and 22, containing subsequent correspondence on the same subject. Having crossed the Atlas Mountains at several different points, and approached the district which is indicated by Mr. Halliburton as the original home and hidden sanctuary of his diminutive and venerated people, I have read his paper with much interest and may perhaps be permitted to criticize his conclusions. My chief during my expedition to Morocco, that distinguished traveller Mr. Joseph Thomson, is, I believe, at present in Katanga, and therefore more inaccessible than I am; but when he is able to speak on the subject, his judgment on the case which Mr. Halliburton has very elaborately set up will not, I am confident, be different from mine.
