PROF. W. K. PAEKEE ON THE 



There is no finality about work of this kind ; all the old work serves but as the begin- 

 ning of new ; and I have sought here rather to offer suggestions than to repeat the detailed 

 facts : — they have but little interest except as links in a long and tortuous chain ; 

 they are not things on which we can rest — they serve, however, as stimulants to further 

 research. 



Editoeial Note. — Owing to the lamented death of the author of this paper before it 

 was in type, and to the illegibility of his handwriting, a few errors in the lettering of the 

 Plates have escaped correction. They were lettered from the original figures, and then 

 printed off; but Prof. W. N. Parker, who has been good enough to revise the proof-sheets, 

 has found it necessary to note the following errata : —
