TEILHARD DE CHARDIN Pierre (1881-1955) priest, paleontologist, theologian and philosopher. L.A.S. "Teilhard", Tientsin May 17, 1936, to a friend| 1 and a half pages in-4.
Beautiful and rare letter on his geological and paleontological works. He explains the embarrassing situation in which he finds himself, after having communicated to his friend geological specimens, some of which were discovered by Yang Kich| he promises to test the ground. He himself continues to work on the Pliocene-Villafranchian series of the Shansi. "In the last shipment was a palate and an anterior half of the mandible of the extraordinary animal (Villafranchian!) of which I described with Piveteau (Nihowan) a molar and a premolar as Chalicotheride [...]. These new pieces increase my uncertainty. The characters of Chalicotheridea become clearer in qq. way, but with a paradoxical convergence to the Notomgulae of South America!. It would be necessary its members. - Did I tell you that we have just collected an Enddinoceras (amblypod. typical of the Upper Eoc. of Mongolia) in the famous red-sandstones of the entrance to the Yangtze Gorge ?. It is a find with great repercussions for the stratigraphy and paleography of China south of the Tsinlings. A note will appear in the next issue of the Bulletin of H. Geolog. Soc. China. I am quite proud of it. In Choukoutien, the excavations are in full swing. [...] We have also just found the first deposit of tripoli in China (Miocene, Shantung). A mass of plants, and vertebrates ".
