Mr.  W.  J.  L.  Abbott  said  that  the  implements  found  in  the  neigh¬ 
bouring  sections  were  of  a  divers^  of  types ;  their  waterworn  con¬ 
dition  is  in  all  stages,  from  perfectly  fresh  and  sharp  to  many  where 
the  traces  of  work  are  almost  obliterated.  When  subjected  to  the 
effects  of  surface-waters,  in  common  with  the  accompanying  gravels, 
they  became  whitened  and  slightly  decomposed  ;  otherwise  they  were 
of  a  warm  brown,  and  fairly  patinated.  Most  of  the  implements  he 
had  dug  out  were  from  within  a  few  feet  of  the  bottom  of  the 
gravel.  He  had  found  numerous  flakes  from  less  than  1  inch  up  to 
6  inches  in  length,  sometimes  simple,  at  others  secondarily  worked.
