BIBLIOGRAPHY OF 1S84: GEOLOGY AND PALAEONTOLOGY. 403 



T. Mellard Reade. Cheshire. 

 Kipple-marks in Drift in Shropshire and Cheshire. Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc, 

 xl. 267-269, with woodcuts; Geol. ^lag., April, p. 1S7. 



Gives section at Tranmere, Cheshire, but discussion tended to prove that 

 these were not true ripple-marks, but due to pressure. 



T. Mellard Reade. Lancashire. 

 Experiments on the Circulation of Water in Sandstone. Proc. Liverp. Geol. 

 Soc, 1883-84, iv. 434-447, and woodcuts. 



These experiments show that a very great deal of water may be drawn 

 laterally from rivers flowing over sandstone, and bringing water from other 

 sources, which may serve to explain the prodigious quantity of water which 

 can be, and is drawn artificially from the New Red Sandstone. 



Clement Reid. Yorkshire. 

 Dust and Soils. Geol. Mag., April., pp. 165-169. 



Refers to the Chalk Wolds, and to the North Yorkshire Moors, whereon 

 bare patches of shales were finely disintegrated by frost, and blown away in 

 small clouds of dust. 



Charles Ricketts. Lancashire. 

 On Indented Pebbles in the Bunter Sandstone, near Prescot. Proc. Liverp. 

 Geol. Soc, 1883-4, iv. 447-449. 



Wherever these pebbles are in contact an indent is made to a greater or 

 less extent in the hard quartzite, forming smooth and regular hollows. Su- A. 

 Ramsay gives what appears to be a correct explanation of this. 



H. G. Seeley. Northern Counties generally. 



Phillips' Manual of Geology, Part I. 8vo, London, 1884. 



Contains many references to Yorkshire and the other Northern counties ; 

 the Whin Sill (p. 336), the Cleveland and Armathwaite Dyke (33S;, lead ores 

 (411,423), the Cleveland ironstone (432 ). 



J. Shipman. Isle of Man. 



Ice-grooved Boulders. Midi. Nat., January, vii. 25. 



Referring to a previous paper by Mr. Harrison, the writer gives his obser- 

 vations on ice-grooves running parallel with the coast-line near Port St. Mary, 

 Isle of Man, the peculiarity in this case being that the striae passed round the 

 corners of the boulders. 



James Shipman. Notts.
