If we turn now to Anglesey, Professor Eamsay, to whom my ac- 

 knowledgments are due, showed many years ago, in ' The Old Glaciers 

 of North Wales,' that the glaciation of that island and the low 

 ground of Caernarvonshire is not in a direction radiating from the 

 mountains, as the highest ground, but that the scratches are from 

 the N.IST.E., and that here you get foreign blocks from the hills of 

 Cumberland. On the opposite coast of Ireland the glaciation, as 

 shown by Mr. Close in his Map (Geol. Mag. 1867), is rather along the 

 coast than from the land. Professor Phillips also tells me that he 

 has observed the same at Bray Head, co. Wicklow. Just as the 

 glaciation in Lancashire and Cheshire bore to the east of the moun- 

 tains of North Wales, so in Anglesey it bore rather to the west, and 

 St. George's Channel was another great outlet on the south for the 

 ice-sheet.
