Also asks if Houston has ever visited the area as he has stories of a possible 1900 fall in Hiawatha but some of the details seem incorrect. Finally mentions that Roach and Elston of the US. Geological Survey had come to collect samples from two suspected astroblemes, but have been unable to analyze them yet due to technical issues.Prior written permission from TCU Special Collections required to use any document or photograph.MeteoriteBelle Plaine (Kan.)Houston, Walter ScottPhipps, Elvin R.Hiawatha (Kan.)El Dorado (Kan.)Geological Survey (U.S.)Hico (Tex.)Wilbarger County (Tex.)Emporia (Kan.)Letter to Walter Houston from Oscar Monnig (May 17, 1963)Document
