chosen to call this the Milton hypothesis. instead o
the hypothesis OF creation the Biblical hypothesis,
or the Mosaic hypothesis. Briefly, II was not 10

with which he not concerned The pungent in
csveness OF the remarks made by the learned Proes-
sor upon this head evoked hearty laughter and APP
plause He preferred simply calling 1t the Milton
hypothesis because there was no ambiguity in what
Milton stated The hypothesis itself was dsnl, n,S
much force that the whole theory OF the creation OF
the world as given by Milton (Which is substantially
the Biblical one) was fatty contradictcd by the evi.
