Botany. — Mr. J. Hartshorn writes : — Most of the species 
expected were found in the ascent to Whitfield Gill. Of 
greatest interest were Wood Stitchwort ( Stellaria nemorum), 
Melancholy Thistle ( Cnicus heterophyllus), Mountain Speedwell 
( Veronica montana ), and the Marsh Crepis (Crepis paludosa). 
Of ferns the gills still yield the Bladder, Oak, Beech, and Harts- 
tongue ferns. Near Whitfield and also about Semmerwater, 
the Alpine Bistort ( Polygonum viviparum ) grows abundantly.

was mostly in the fruiting stage, but the Yellow Water-lily 
( Nymphcea lutea) was seen in bloom in the Bain. 
Members walking down the valley from Hawes Junction 
noticed the prevalence of the Wood Geranium and the com-
