Hitcham, Bildeston, Suffolk - Adam Sedgwick 'put the same query to me as you have done respecting the transmutation of species - and my reply must be the same - no Botanist, so far as I am aware, gives any credit to the tale. How the results have been obtained in the 2 or 3 cases out of many that have been tried is a mystery - but possibly some carelessness, or neglect, or even trickery, may have been practiced. In the present state of our knowledge I should as soon expect to hear that some one had seen a planet blaze out into a sun'. JSH gives his comments concerning WW's neighbour's encounters with barley and oats.
