MEMOIR OF CALEB B. ROSE.

The last-named species would relegate the deposit to the highest 
stage of the Norwich Crag Series (if it he Crag at all), or in other 
words, to the Wey bourn Crag or Bure Valley Beds of some 
authorities. Rose also refers to the Mammalian remains obtained 
from an Oyster-bank about 11 fathoms deep, and from 11 to 2 
miles from Yarmouth beach. These remains include Hippopotamus, 
Mammoth, Irish Elk, Ac. Similar remains have been obtained 
from the Dogger Bank. 
On November 5th, 1860, Rose became a member of the Geologists’ 
Association, and to the Proceedings of this Society he contributed 
several papers. In 1861 he described the “beds of redeposited 
Crag shells” in the Drift Sand near Yarmouth ; and in 1862 gave 
a general account of the Cretaceous group in Norfolk, together with 
notes on the deep boring made by Messrs. Col man at Norwich. 
Therein Rose records the presence of Upper Greensand, as well as 
Gault, beneath the great thickness of Chalk. In this paper he 
supplements his early work on Western Norfolk with additional 
notes on the fossils ; and records his discovery of some species in 
the Lower Greensand.* Further observations on the Cretaceous 
Beds of Norfolk and Kent were also communicated in 1866 to the 
Norwich Geological Society : Rose having in the meanwhile paid 
a visit to Folkestone. f In 1861 he journeyed to Boulogne in 
company with his friend the Rev. Thomas Wiltshire, and published 
a short account of their observations. 
In the same year Rose drew attention (by letter) to the occurrence 
of fossiliferous Crag at Yarn Hill, near Easton Bavent ; and the 
section was afterwards independently noticed and described by the 
Rev. O. Fisher. J Four years later Rose first brought into notice 
the rich bed of Crag that occurs at Aldeby ; but he had already 
discovered it in 1865, at that time regarding the section as in 
Toft Monks an adjoining parish. Ho rightly grouped this Aldeby 
Crag with the upper bed of Norwich Crag at Bramerton. 
Rose was for many years a regular attendant at the meetings of
