I may add that Magilligan is but one of many strands rich 

 in marine treasures. Portmarnock, in the neighbourhood of 

 Dublin, I have visited. All round the west coast of Donegal 

 there are many. Of Cruit, Carrickfinn, Mullaghderg, Rutland, 

 &c., a friend (himself an experienced conchologist), writes : — 

 " These are richer in varieties than any English or Scotch 

 strands I have read of"
