²⁶ Mueller, to Maskelyne, , 20 02 1862Google Scholar (NHM: Cranbourne). This evidence makes unlikely the assertion by Walcott, (op. cit., (8))Google Scholar that the suggestion for the exchange was made by Governor Barkly to Mueller, although Mueller does say that Barkly concurred. It is possible, but unlikely, that the suggestion was first made by Barkly to McCoy, for McCoy wrote on 21 February to Richard Owen that ‘The Governor…has just suggested that if you were to buy Abel's meteorite and send it all for the museum here we could send you the much larger one entire which would probably be the most satisfactory solution of the difficulty for all parties’ (Outward letter book 2, no. 62/35, National Museum of Victoria). Barkly reports that ‘The question [of division of the meteorite] having been submitted to my judgement, I suggested that perhaps the better plan would be, to ask the Trustees of the British Museum to send back the smaller mass purchased from Mr Abel, on condition of receiving the “Bruce” meteorite in its original state’ (Presidential Address to the Royal Society of Victoria, 28 April 1862, Transactions and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria (1865), 6, 3)Google Scholar, although later he reported having learnt that the idea had been suggested earlier by McCoy (Barkly, to Maskelyne, , 25 05 1863Google Scholar (NHM: Cranbourne)).

³² The details of this inquiry are difficult to determine, as the file pertaining to it cannot be found in the Public Record Office of Victoria. We know from the Registers that it was sent to Mr Odgers, the Chief Clerk of the Chief Secretary's Department, on 26 March 1867, but we have been unable to determine for what purpose the file was needed. We reconstruct the inquiry as far as possible from letters that mention it, but it is not certain how far the final report departs from the draft preserved in the Museum of Victoria archives. The Board may not have been as biased as it appears on the surface: Smyth and Selwyn did not have a good relationship, and in May 1863 Smyth reports not having spoken to Selwyn except on official business for nearly two years (Darragh, , op. cit. (5), 10).Google Scholar
