Loch Creran . — At Fasnacloich, boulders of black granite, two of 
380 and 280 tons respectively. The boulders have their sharpest 
ends pointing towards mouth of Loch Creran, viz., to S.W. The 
rocks in situ are different. 
Chips from these boulders having been submitted by the Convener 
to Professor Judd (Kensington Department), he identified them as 
similar in composition to rooks seen by him in Skye, Mull, and Ard- 
namurchan. It appeared to him that the Appin boulders, before 
mentioned, were the same in composition as the Fasnacloich boulders. 
Professor Judd stated, that these Loch Creran and Appin 
boulders are not granites, but ‘Crocks of a basic composition, — a 
gabbro with some black mica” {Fourth Report, p. 11). 
At mouth of loch, rocks smoothed (when facing W.N.W.) up 
to about 70 feet above sea. About a. mile higher up loch, 
smoothed rocks face W.S.W. at height of 80 feet above sea. 
Near sea level, smoothing seemed due to, some force moving down 
valley. Pocks at a higher level seemed to. have been smoothed by 
force moving from. K.Wo^ 
In Glen Creran most of boulders lie on drift At one place 
boulders form a cluster on a rocky knoll. 
Statement by Mr Hall, an intelligent residenter, that a trainee of
