332 Mr. Farey’s Notes on Mr. Bakewell’s Geology. 
{P.285 these multitudes “of fragments” are supposed to be deriv- 
ed from supposed veins of white Quartz, (p. 287 and 188) and 
by supposttions, equally probable, these fragments’of quartz, 
- in travelling a Mile, or 20 at most, within the distance here 
alluded to, are supposed to be in a great degree if not per- 
fectly rounded ! !, see my Note on page 188.

1.7, rests on the flanks+.—+ When I examined this 
‘Forest, it was in too much haste, as observed in my 2d 
Letter, vol. xlii. p. 116; had it been situated 7 _Derby- 
shire, it would have had a far more minute examination, and 
I should have been able to speak rather positively, as to 
_ what thick Rocks would be seen in ascending any particular 
Brook (except perhaps in some Coal-districts,) here I can- 
not be equally confident. In page 158, vol. i. of my Re- 
port, I have mentioned the appearances, as justifying the 
imference, that the Grace-Dieu limestone rock passes under 
the Forest Slate: and when I now recollect, the confidence 
with which Mr. B., from Theory only, has asserted, in his 
Note on page 266 (see my Note thereon), that similar dis- 
coveries of lower strata might be made, by ascending the 
yavines in the North Eastern Moorlands of Yorkshire, he must 
€xcuse me for continuing to think, that he is not less mistaken 
as to the Grace-Dieu ravine, until F shall happen to have 
the opportunity of examining the spot more minutely, or of 
learning the observations of others, who have so examined it.

1. 20, nodules of lead ore ++.—t+t Such bolders are found 
occasionally, where no adjacent Limestone Rock and Lead 
Veins, can easily be supposed to have disappeared, as in the 
Gravel Pit at Wyaston, Rep. i. 372, &c.

How Mr. B. makes this place to be * on the other side of 
¥ This remarkable Limestone Rock (see top of Mr. B’s page 16), from 
its pozolanic property, the fossil Bones and flat scaly Fish, the Pentacrinus, 
&c. &c. that it contains, seems to me, from the translation of M. Cuvier’s 
Geology, p. 260, to enter the Coast of France at the mouth of the Seine, 
and to pass inland by a circuitous route westward, to Alengon in the depart- 
ment of Orne, and perhaps in the dep. of the Mayne and Loire, &c. IfTam 
right in these conjectures, the fine Bath Oa/ite near Caen in the department 
of Calvados, whence it is said that Henry the Seventh’s Chapel inWestmiuster 
was built, probably occupies the tops of the hills (unless a depression or 
trough occurs there ?) as it does to the E and SE of Bath, (see my 2d Note 
on page 167); the Bridge in which last City, stands on the eastern edge of 
the ring of Lias, that surrounds another of Red Marl, including and over- 
lieing a Smal! deuudated Coal-field, occurring between Bath and wai fey
