Abstract

IT chanced, strangely enough, that Mr. Deeley's interesting letter reached me at a Norwegian port during the return journey of the Geological Congress party from Spitsbergen, on which Prof. R. S. Tarr, whose work has given rise to the letter, is a fellow-traveller with me. I have therefore taken advantage of the opportunity to discuss the subject with Prof. Tarr and other glacialists of our party.
