boring practically do water was got; but from a fresh boring, put 

 down by them to the depth of 80 feet (from the surface), about 

 9 gallons a minute were obtained. 



Lastly, we have a section at Benacre, where, if the Crag is about 

 as thick as at the Southwold boring, some 5 miles south (where 

 it has been proved to have a thickness of 147 feet), it should reach 

 to a depth of over 200 feet.

The primary object of this paper has now been fulfilled. But 

 there are a few other Suffolk sections that should, I think, be 

 recorded in print, so as to be accessible to geologists. Accounts of 

 these now follow, in alphabetical order of places. The first is not 

 new, but the private Report in which it is printed can only be seen 

 with difficulty. It corrects and adds to an earlier record.
