Thanks for the Post Paul and Fred!

Very interesting that it was called a stony-iron probably just due to 
the inclusions - and furthermore that all stony-irons rather than the 
colorful olivine types were apparently called pallasites at that time 
(1924?) and this isn't just an artifact on the Ward's label, does 
anyone know when the definition of a pallasite was standardized ... or 
has it just gradually slid into the current Esquelesque usage?

Kindest wishes
Doug
