dc.description	Letter from Oscar Monnig to Glen Harris Orr (the finder of the Tishomingo meteorite) in care of his father R. C. Orr, letting him know that the Smithsonian is currently convinced that the specimens of Tishomingo that they sent in to them are artificial iron, and asks if it is possible that the smaller specimens came from elsewhere than the two larger specimens which to Monnig's eye look like meteorites for sure.
