 of Maxville, Ohio. Hunt regarded all these as 

 coming essentially into the same category as regard 

 to general composition and properties. His analysis 

 of the minerals from Pole Hill and Llangwyllog is

These minerals approach in composition to the 

 joUyte of Von Kobell, from which they differ in con-
