Among the important gifts in the Department of Geology may 

 be mentioned a collection numbering 1,077 specimens of minerals 

 and fossils from Charles A, Sawyer, in the name of his mother, Mrs. 

 Elizabeth E. T. Sawyer. It is especially valuable for its stalactites 

 from Galena, Illinois, and stalactites and minerals from numerous 

 other localities. Mr. Ira B. Meyers presented to the Museum a superb 

 fulgurite more than nine feet in length, doubtless one of the finest 

 specimens in existence. The late Prof. Henry A. Ward presented 41 

 sections of meteorites for microscopic study, making a total of more 

 than 100 such slides received through his kindness. A fine series of 

 crystallized barite showing a new habit and locality for this mineral 

 was presented by Julian Pickles. A valuable representation of the 

 kimberlite occurring in northeastern Kentucky was obtained by the
