ADAMSON : THE YORKSHIRE BOULDER COMMITTEE. 333 



removal." The Committee also express their poignant regret at 

 the untimely decease of Prof. H. Carvill Lewis, who entered with such 

 enthusiasm and success into glacial investigations connected with 

 this country, and who, at the Manchester meeting of the British 

 Association, expressed his high opinion of the work of the Yorkshire 

 Boulder Committee, looking forward, as he then said, to much 

 practical co-operation with them. 



Speaking upon coming work, many reports are already in hand 

 for consideration, and the Committee desire to emphasise their 

 request that all unreported examples of erratic blocks in this county 

 may be duly scheduled, for which purpose the hon. secretar)- 

 (Mr. Adamson, F.G.S., 52, Wellclose Terrace, Leeds) will gladly 

 supply the requisite form of schedule, or give any information upon 

 the work of the Committee and the results they desire. The details 

 of reports received and examined are now presented.
