investigator in an undisturbed cave in a Mousterian layer it is no 

 good adducing stray parallels or evidence of a Palaeolithic age for 

 Grimes Graves, and by analogy for Cissbury and Spiennes and other 

 sites. The complete absence of any extinct mammalia or mollusca 

 and the presence of sheep and domesticated oxen are, of course, very 

 strong evidence against a Palaeolithic age for this remarkable locality 

 of mining industry. 



II. — C. W. Gilmore. A New Restoration of Stegosauxus. Proc. 

 U.S. Eat. Museum, vol. xlix, 1915. 



IN a recent publication (Bull. 89, U.S. Nat. Museum) Mr. Gilmoro 

 has given an exhaustive account of the osteology of Stegosaurus, 

 and has discussed the various restorations of that curious reptile 

 hitherto published by different authors. In the present paper he gives 

 a new restoration embodying the results of his own researches, and 

 probably representing the nearest approach to accuracy that is likely 

 to be attained. He comes to the conclusion that the large plate-like 

 spines situated along either side of the mid-dorsal line were alternate, 

 not opposite as might have been expected. Furthermore, he believes 

 that the largest spines were not, as is usually represented, situated 

 over the pelvic region, but at the base of the tail, and that the 

 so-called gular ossicles covered the upper surface and sides of the 

 head and neck. The animal probably lived in low swampy ground, 

 and from the proportions of the limbs and some other characters is 

 almost certainly secondarily quadripedal, having been derived from a 

 bipedal ancestry.

 Born 1838. Died September 29, 1915.

We regret to record the death, in his 77th year, of Dr. Charles 

 Callaway (the well-known Cambrian geologist and a frequent 

 contributor for thirty years to the Geological Magazine), which 

 occurred at his residence, Cheltenham, on September 29. Dr. Callaway 

 was born in Bristol in 1838, and received his preliminary education in 

 that city. Later on his studies were directed to the clerical profession 

 and he entered Cheshunt College, near London, but shortly turned his 

 attention to education and scientific work. He was attracted to 

 geology in early life by collecting some fossils in the Inferior Oolite 

 of Dundry Hill, near Bristol, and acquired practical knowledge of 

 some branches of geology as Curator of the Museum of the Bradford 

 Philosophical Society, as Assistant in Palaeontology and Mineralogy 

 in the New York State Museum at Albany, under Professor James 

 Hall, and as Curator of the Sheffield Public Museum. His marriage 

 in 1876 led to his settlement at Wellington, near the Wrekin. 



His discovery of an Upper Cambrian fauna at Shineton in shales 

 hitherto regarded as of Caradoc age was the kev to most of his
