 Hedderwick hill, E. L. ; and on the summit of Ruberslaw, Rox.

Vicia angustifolia, Roth. The true plant was found in July 

 by Dr. Stuart and Capt. Norman, a mile west from Gordon. 



Rosa rubiginosa. West Barns links, E. L. 



Saxifraga Hirculus. "It is a duty I owe to the Club, to 

 inform the members that Saxifraga Sir cuius is all but extinct at 

 Langtonlees dean, in consequence of a number of sheep drains 

 having been constructed through the place where it used to grow. 

 My second son and Capt. Norman were up at the station last 

 summer, and came back with hardly a vestige of a specimen. It, 

 however, may spring again, but I am not sanguine. At one 

 period it was plentiful." — Dr. Charles Stuart.
