摘要：

I address a question recently raised by Simon Saunders concerning the relationship between the space-time structure of Newton-Cartan theory and that of what I will call "Maxwell-Huygens space-time." This discussion will also clarify a connection between Saunders's work and a recent paper by Eleanor Knox.
