The Rev. P. B. Brodie, M.A., F.G.S., then gave a short 
viva voce account of the Drift in a part of Warwickshire, 
with special reference to the evidence of glacial action which 
“34 affords. A section of the Cliff at Buddleigh Salterton, 
Devonshire, was described in detail, and the various lower 
Silurian fossils which it contains. 
Mr. Tomes gave a few interesting details respecting the 
“Megaceros”—*‘Fossil deer of Ireland,” which is now placed 
in the Geological room. 
Votes of thanks having been passed to those gentlemen 
who had read papers, and the President of the Society 
(Mr. J. Cove Jones), the meeting separated, 
By the kind permission of the Warwickshire Natural History 
Society, THE WARWICKSHIRE Naturaists’ AND ARCHEOLOGISTS’ 
Fietp Cvs held their Annual Winter Meeting in the Museum, 
on February 6th, 1867. The President delivered his address 
chiefly devoted to Archwology, in which he especially dwelt 
upon the recent discoveries of Flint Implements in the post 
Tertiary period, and the Lake Dwellings. The Rev. P. B. 
Brodie read the following paper, on “the drift in part of 
Warwickshire, and on the evidence of glacial action which: it 
affords.” The low level drift and its fossils was first described, 
and a detailed account given of the older glacial drift at 
Hatton, Rowington, Edstone, and Temple Balsall, and strong 
evidence adduced in favour of its glacial origin.’ One of the 
chief points of interest was the occurrence of certain quartzose 
pebbles of lower Silurian age, containing fossils of the 
quartzites of May, Gahard, &c, in Normandy, which are 
also found in the New Red Sandstone, at Buddleigh Salterton 
in Devonshire, and both were supposed to have had a 
similar origin.
