Good Easter, Sliellow Bowells, Stonclon Massey, Navestock, 

 South Weald, Brentwood, and Thorndon Hall; and from 3, 

 by this Ime continued to Langdon Hills, Vange, and along 

 the high road to tlie river at Southend, including Canvey 

 Island. 



Sub-province 3 — Crouch. From 4, by a line from Heron- 

 gate, Thorndon Hall, to Billericay, Downham Green, Hill- 

 house, Woodham Ferrers, Norton Cold, and along the high 

 road to St. Peter's Church, Bradwell. 



Sub-proi'ince 4 — Blackwater. From 7, by a line from 

 Henham-on-the-Hill to Debden and the county boundary 

 near Cut Bush, Ashdon. From 5 and 6, by a line from 

 Bumpstead to Weathersfield, High Garret, Marks Hall,

 West Wood Green, Ardleigh, Bradfield House, Wicks Cross, 

 Stone Cross, and Great Oakley. 



Sub-province 6 — Stour, and Sub-province 7 — Brook, are thus 

 already defined. 



As compared with Mr. Gibson's divisions, my sub-province 

 1 comes in his 1, 3, and 4 ; my 2 in his 1 (very little), 3, 4, 

 and 5 ; my 3 in his 5 and 6 ; my 4 in his 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 ; 

 my 5 in his 1 (very little), 2, 7, and 8; my 6 in his 1, 2, 

 and 8 ; and my 7 entirely in his 1 . 



Thus, making another much urged alteration, viz., substi- 

 tuting abbreviated names for initials, Mr. Gibson's localities 

 for Clematis Vitalba will run, when re- arranged, as follows : — 



1 ?— 2. Little Warley, Hind. Tilbury, Newb. Southend, 

 Ibbot. Komford, Ibbot. — 3. Rochford, Ibbot. — 4. Chelmsford, 

 Broomfield, Boreham, Pi(j(j. Kelvedon, Rivenhall, Varen. 

 Maldon, Ibbot. — 5. Halstead, llent. Copford, Bab. Col- 

 chester, Gam. — 6 ? — 7. Common in the Walden district, 

 Gibs. 



To recast the whole of this valuable work in the manner 

 thus i)roposed would be a labour of considerable difficulty.
