We quitted Biigen in 1898 with no expectation of ever seeing it 

 again. But after completing the paper which has appeared in the 

 Society's Quarterly Journal,^ we felt the usual desire of once more 

 going over the work. When there seemed a possibility of gratifying 

 this, we should have withheld our paper, if a special reason had not 

 existed for an early publication of our views. We determined,, 

 however, in 1899 to cover a wider field and to examine not only 

 Arkona (which want of time had prevented us from visiting), but 

 also some sections at Warnemiinde which we expected to prove very 



^ This paper was delivered to the Society on May 4th, but as neither author 

 could be present on the only evening then free, the reading was at their request 

 deferred to this Session. In the interval they have had the ojDportunity of 

 consulting a work by Prof. E. Geinitz, published about 15 years ago, which has 

 been recently added to the Society's Librai-y. A paper by Herr A. Baltzer 

 has also appeared, Zeitschr. d. Deutsch. Geol. Gesellsch. vol. li (1899> 

 p. 556. He considers the folding of the Chalk to be prior to the deposit 

 of the Drifts, but apparently will not exclude the possibility of some folding 

 being produced by the thrust of an ice-sheet. Much of his paper is devoted 

 to the occurrence of drumlins in Jasmund. Most of these occur in the 

 district west of the Chalk-hills, though two or three are situated on them. 

 These we must have seen, but cannot commit ourselves to this view of their 

 origin.
