In 1912 Mr. N. B. Kinnear, Curator of the Bombay Natural History Society's Museum, brought to me at the British Museum, for identification, a specimen of a supposed meteorite which had been sent to the Bombay Natural History Society by the late General W. Osborn. General Osborn stated that, in November, 1910, on arrival at his usual winter quarters in the hill station of Kotheir in the Punjab, he visited his friend, the Rajah of Bilaspur, who presented him with a fragment, weighing about a quarter of a pound, of a meteorite which had fallen in daylight at the village of Baroti, in the Bilaspur (Simla) district, one day during the month of September, 1910.
