GEOLOGY.—Mr. J. J. Burton writes :—On Saturday morning 
the members walked over the pass from Barras to Tan Hill, 
where the highest Millstone Grit house in England is situated, 
examining by the way the very fine examples of deep cuttings 
made by fell-side streams into the soft shales and grits. In 
some of these streams many Stigmaria were noticed. 
Tan Hill Colliery was also visited, where, in the Millstone 
Grit series, a seam of coal five feet in thickness and of moderate 
quality has been extensively worked, and we were informed 
Ig13 Juner.
