VOTE—GEOLOG ¥; 
_ Travelled ranite on Walney Island.—The other day I was shown 
in the paving of a side street in Ulverston, a rounded, thavelled piece of Shap 
Granite. All the stones used in front of certain "basins premises were brought 
thie i ngst them ; 
more specimens to be found at the same place still. Large quantities of yeors 
were removed from Walney to crush for concrete for Manchester Ship Canal, and 
: rant beach shows no sign of diminishing ; there must be a good su pply under 
r. The idea that the piece under notice was once ship’s ballast will not, 
i ‘thisk, meet the case, for if so, it probably came from some portion of the 
‘Cumberland sea-board. Mr. R. Smith, who ees out the Aaah to me pois 
a believer in oes geese) nightmare), considers it ice-borne. _In size it is about five 
inch S. L. Petry, Ulverston, tach 7 eg 
April 1897.
