Mr. P. F. Kendall, F.G.S., exhibited a fine series of Lantern 
Slides, kindly lent by Dr. Wright, to illustrate glacial features in the 
extreme north-west of America, and especially features exhibited by 
the great Muir Glacier, of Alaska. 
A discussion followed on the various papers and addresses in 
which Dr. F. F. Walton, Mr. J. E. Clark, Rev. E. Maule Cole, and 
Mr. P. F. Kendall took part. 
A vote of thanks was passed to the Yorkshire Philosophical 
Society for kindly granting the use of the Museum, and to Mr. H. 
Platnauer for his arrangements for the meeting. 
Saturday, April 27th. The party proceeded by train to Holtby, 
where a careful examination was made of a cutting in the North- 
E^LStern Railway. This cutting passes transversely through the 
northern moraine and showed a good section of boulder-clay, in 
which were found boulders of Shap granite, Scottish granites, Brock- 
ram, Carboniferous rocks, and Trias marls with pseudomorphsof rocksalt 
and gypsum. The road was then taken to Stamford Bridge where a 
short halt was made for luncheon. Thence the party proceeded to 
High Catton where a gravel-pit in the southern, or Escrick, moraine 
was examined. It showed beds of coarse and fine gravel and sand 
containing Brockram and Carboniferous rocks. The Escrick moraine 
was then ascended and a good view obtained of the lie of the two 
moraines. On the return journey the southern moraine was crossed 
again showing a section of gravelly deposits in the middle, and 
boulder-clay with a little sand plastering the outer side of the moraine. 
A little further on chalky gravels were seen in a pit near the railway 
bridge at Hunger Hill. The party returned by waggonette from Stam- 
ford Bridge to York, and dined together at the North Eastern Hotel. 
Before dinner a meeting of the Glacialists' Association was held, 
to which the members of the Yorkshire Geological Society were 
courteously invited. An interesting paper on " The Glaciation of 
the Faroes" by Dr. Karl Grossmann and Mr. J. Lomas, A.R.C.S., 
was read. 
Council Meeting, Philosophical Hall, Leeds, 10th June, 1895.
