Portarlington. Dated 26th June, 1911 - Has been reading 'Totemism and Exogamy' and discusses the Tamil system of naming extended family members and takes issue with his statement that this classification is less logical than the Seneca-Iroquois system, as pointed out by Lorimer Fison; more briefly mentions the relationship names of Nyang-speaking tribes, and the fact that the Ossetes are Aryan speaking people, and the natives of Rotuma speak not Polynesian but Melanesian.
