July 10,—Milford, Crooksbury Common, Waverley Abbey, to 
Farnham. 
On this excursion we had the benefit of being conducted by 
the Rev. E. S. Marshall, F.L.S., who pointed out several rare 
and critical plants. Only 4 members availed themselves of his 
guidance. 
Mr. Marshall led us first over Royal Common, where we 
gathered Rubus hemistemon (P. J. Muell.) and &. rhombifolius, 
Weihe, and then on, through delightful country, past Elstead 
to Charles Hill. Here R. mollissimus, Rogers, was found. 
Over sandy fields and through sandy fir-woods, where Epilobium 
Lamyi, F. Schultz, was growing, led us pleasantly to Crooksbury 
Common. 
On the way to Waverley Abbey, Teesdalia was noted by the 
‘roadside. A visit was made to the ruins, but not very much 
remains of the once extensive Cistercian Abbey (the earliest in 
England) which was founded by Bishop Gifford in 1128. 
, A rare Surrey plant, Geranium rotundifolium, L., grows by 
the roadside near Farnham, and we were very pleased to end a 
most enjoyable excursion by gathering specimens of it, though 
it was somewhat past its prime. It might be hastily confounded 
with G. molle, L.; but if carefully examined, the carpels of the 
former are found to be quite hairy, whereas those of G. molle 
are glabrous and wrinkled as well: this distinction was very 
a evident, as the plants were well in fruit.
