Several interesting plants were found during the day, inelud- 
ing two or three commoner in northern or mountain localities 
than in the southern counties, as the bitter cress (Cardamine 
amara), the bistort (Polygonum Bistorta), the mountain fern 
(Lastrea Oreopteris), the hard fern (Lomaria spicant), and the 
club moss (Lycopodium Selago). Others were the ramsons (Allium 
ursinum), a plant common in some parts of England, but rare or 
absent in Surrey and the adjacent counties; Hieraciwm murorum, 
Typha latifolia and angustifolia, and Carex vesicaria. Tea at the 
White Horse and a stroll back across the common to the station 
concluded a most enjoyable day. 
6th. June 16th.—Cycling excursion to Godstone to join the 
Geologists’ Association, conducted by the President. From the 
Proc. Geol. Assoc., p. 510, we extract as follows :— 
‘«‘The party walked from Caterham station to the crest of the 
Chalk escarpment at Upwood Scrubs, where a mass of Blackheath 
pebble beds was examined, and a fine view over the Lower 
Greensand tract was obtained. The walk was continued along 
a footpath down the escarpment to Godstone quarry in the Fire- 
stone of the Uppér Greensand, with its underground workings» 
dipping northward. Some old workings near Quarry Farm were 
visited, and then a new working about a third of a mile eastward, 
where a good section was seen. The party proceeded thence to 
Godstone, stopping at the northern part of the village to see a 
sand-pit in the Folkestone Beds. The walk was then continued 
to the pits of Tilburstow, which are more than one-third of a 
mile long, and made simply to get the Chert at the bottom for 
road-metal. At one part a small portion of the Folkestone 
Beds (sand) is touched. The whole thickness of the Sandgate 
Beds (clay with greensand) is passed through.. The Chert is 
classed with the Hythe Beds by the Geological Society. Thence 
the party walked eastward by way of the road-cutting on Tilbur- 
stow Hill, and through Tandridge to Oxted.” 
7th. June 30th.— To Reigate, conducted by Mr. J. H. 
Baldock. 
«Being away at the time, Mr. Gower kindly took this for me. 
The weather was very gloomy, and but few members came. On 
reaching Reigate the small party were met by an equally small 
party under Mr. Brooks, who thereafter became conductor. 
Ground new to our Club was traversed, disclosing some pretty 
scenery, and I would suggest that this excursion be taken again 
when more favourable weather may be hoped for.’’—J. H. 
Baupock.
