VICTORIAN METEORITES, WITH NOTES ON OBSIDIANITES. 
(c) A piece weighing about half a pound in possession of 
Capt. MacMahon in 1860 or 1861, worked into a 
rod. 
(d) An irregular fragment, much decomposed, with plates of 
taenite, weighing 34' 2 grams; and a thin slab of 
15 grams, with etched surface, in the Field Museum, 
Chicago (18, p. 93). 
(e) A small piece, 1 gram in weight, in Dr. A. Brezina’s 
collection (6, p. 244). 
(/) Pieces having a total weight of 2,638 grams, in the Ward- 
Coonly collection (58, pp. 9, 75). The largest piece 
weighs 2,615 grams. Ward purchased the bulk of 
Gregory’s collection in 1901, but it does not appear 
whether he secured with it any of the Cranbourne 
fragments. 
(g) Three pieces in the British Museum (7, p. 71), found in 
Abel’s collection, with the label “ Yarra Yarra River. 
— Date 1858,” obtained from Jas. Gregory, who 
purchased them when Abel’s collection was sold in 
London. Their weight is 214 grams. These frag- 
ments are said to have been probably detached from 
one of the Cranbourne meteorites. It is curious that 
Abel, who must have known the localities so well, 
should have put such a label on the specimens if 
they were really parts of one of the Cranbourne 
meteorites. 
(h) Six pieces, said to be from the Yarra Yarra River, evi- 
dently also from Abel’s collection, in Gregory’s col- 
lection, London, in 1889 (27). Three of the pieces, 
weighing respectively 10, 17 and 25 grams, were 
offered for sale, and three others, one of which shows 
Widmanstatten figures, were in his private collection. 
They weighed 85, 34 and 23 grams. The last three 
are now (February, 1913) in the possession of Gregory’s 
son (Victor H. Gregory), in London. 
(j) The K. K. Hofmuscums, Vienna (5, pp. 344, 368), have in 
v/ their list of meteorites in the collection specimens from 
the Yarra Yarra (" Yara Yara ”), said to have been 
found in 1853 (= 1858 of British Museum, Fletcher). 
These may possibly be the specimens offered for sale 
in Gregory’s catalogue. 
(Jc) A fragment with prominent octahedral structure, of 4‘ 5 
V ^ prams weight, with Yarra Yarra River as locality, is 
given in the catalogue of the Field Museum speci- 
mens (18, p. 93).
