I have already spoken of the very singular red 
and white stone of this place,* as a_ striking speci- 
men of marble. I shall now . take notice of it, in 
reference to its Animal Remains.. The white part 
appears to me, to be the stems of a variety of the 
Lily Encrinite; and, for this reason,—viz. I have 
recently found a fragment of this rock, containing, 
with the stems, what, I believe to be a head of 
one of those curious and rare animals.—Vide Plate 
10. Fragments of the vertebral column, of different 
lengths and sizes, of another variety of these ani- 
mals, appear in great quantities, in most of the 
rocks. of this eminence, facing the sea. A specimen 
of which is represented in Plate 4. I have. never 
discovered shells of any kind, in the vicinity of the 
Devil’s Point.
