FOOTNOTES: [Footnote 2: Haeckel is correct enough in his surmise that Lemuria was the cradle of the human race as it now exists, but it was not out of Anthropoid apes that mankind developed.

London: Macmillan & Co., 1876. Vol. 1., pp. 76-7.] [Footnote 5: Ceylon and South India, it is true, have been bounded on the north by a considerable extent of sea, but that was at a much earlier date than the Tertiary period.] [Footnote 6: Wallace's "Geographical Distribution, etc." Vol. 1., pp. 328-9.] [Footnote 7: Wallace's "Geographical Distribution, etc.," Vol. ii., p. 155.] [Footnote 8: H.
