CiRC. No. 122. 



EXPLANATION.-— The Map is divided into square miles by horizontal and 

 perpendicular lines. 



BOOKS AND MAPS.— The district for investigation is included in Sheets 

 51 and 52 (97 S.E. and 96 S.W.) one-inch Ordnance Map (also published geologi- 

 cally coloured). The six-inch Sheets are loi and 102. Reference may be made to 

 Davis and Lees' West Yorkshire, 1878 (ilorula of Ilaekfall at p. 2S7), and to the 

 Ripon lists of plants l)y Mr. Pratt (in Millenary Record, 1892), and Rev. H. H- 

 Slater (Trans. Y.N.U.). Miss Harrison published a list of ferns in the Naturalist 

 for June, 1856, pp. 136-7 ; and about 1858 the Rev. James Dallon published a 

 paper on the mollusca of the banks of the Ure, which we are unable to trace; 

 perhaps some reader will indicate in what magazine the paper was published. The 

 botanical works by Miss Pines include notices of the plants of the Ripon district. 



THE DISTRICT for investigation lies entirely on the right or South bank 

 of, and mostly close to, the River Yore, from Ilaekfall to Ripon. All records from 

 the opposite side of the river should be kept carefully distinct, as being in quite 

 another vice-county (North-west Yorkshire). 



PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by Lord 

 Ripon (including free admission to liackfall grounds), Sir Reginald Graham, Bart., 

 Mr. T. Arton, Mrs. Hammond and Son, Miss Staveley, and the farmers in the 

 neighbourhood.
