%* This Monograph on the Lias Ammonites (a memorial of the ability of its pains- 

 taking Author, and representing the desire of a life) possesses a melancholy interest. 

 Commenced in 1878, and continued year by year until only a few pages remained 

 imprinted, its further progress was, in 1884, stayed by the hand of death. Sufficient 

 notes, however, were in existence to complete the work, and with these it is offered in 

 its present form.
