Longer axis N. and S. Several boulders on Leek Farm, near 
Loch Lundie, considerably larger. Some of boulders examined 
by Mr Jolly, school inspector, Inverness, and found by him 
to be striated. On Faicheam Ard Farm boulders very peculiar, 
being entirely different from all rocks in neighbourhood. 
Have been objects of curiosity to many geologists. The 
boulders generally arranged in groups, except at Faicheam Ard, 
where piled on one another. They rest on gravel. At Leek, 
near Iron Suspension Bridge, rocks in situ well striated. 
There are “ kaims” in another part of parish. At mouth of 
G-lengarry a delta of fine gravel. In Lochaber also, along 
banks of Spean and Lochy. (Reporter—Parochial School¬
