Description:
‘Dear Prof. Pearson,
I thank you very much for your testimonial & letter.
I do not quite like the idea of facing another home[?] just at present. Prof. Thane is going to attempt to sex the saera & hip bones, the latter very unfortunately are mostly broken into fragments. In any case the determinations ought to give some idea as to the accuracy of the skull & long bone sexing.
From the appearance of the bones I believe, excepting the 9[?] graves etc[?], that there is but one race.
I will ascertain as to the Whitechapel long bones; I think there are a considerable number but certainly not as many as Libyan & so I do not see how they could help us. It would be very valuable if such a splitting up as you suggest could be effected. I wish I had a sufficiently mathematical head to attack the problem.
I remain,
Yours very faithfully,
E. Warren.’
