Frazer — On Drawings of Scribed Stones by DuNoyer. 453 
the Geological Survey an extensive collection of drawings, suffi- 
cient to fill twelve folio volumes, which he presented to us. They 
form a body of Irish Antiquarian Literature priceless for reference 
and consultation, and constitute a special feature in our Library. I 
wish we could publish in an appropriate manner this collection which 
I have much pleasure in exhibiting of the Lough Crew inscribed 
stones, illustrated, as far as possible, by Mr. Conwell's descriptions. 
Whether the Cairn T which he described so fully be the Tomb of 
Ollahm Fodhla, or the lesser Cairns grouped around are the resting 
places of the Koyal Ultonian race, signifies little. The identification 
of the site itself with Tailten and its historic fair is a matter altogether 
of opinion, and must be approached in a different form of discussion. 
We have a plain duty to perform by endeavouring to place on permanent 
record this series of scribed stones rivalling the great monument of 
JBrittany at Gavr Inis, and surpassing all other remains of a similar 
character yet discovered in Ireland. Let posterity, if they are able, 
decipher the true meaning of such elaborate scribings, and unravel 
the lost history of the race by whom they were produced, and who 
they were that buried their dead in such remarkable tombs.
