I told Morley that in my then several years of experience in the chicle business I had supervised the felling and burning of many hundreds-I might say thousands-of acres of forest land, both in southern Campeche and at present in Petn. ... Without exception in this vast area-one hundred leagues in length-these clearings, upon being burnt, showed every evidence that practically all the land had been occupied by small house-sites and land under cultivation. Morley violently disagreed with me on this point. He told me that he would not dare to return to Cambridge with any such theory
