On hearing that Mr. G. E. Dibley, F.G.S., had exhibited at the June meeting of the Geologists' Association some test-plates of Marsupites from the Chalk of a new road near Russell Hill, I made inquiries of him, and he most kindly told me the particular locality where he and others had obtained these fossils. As the place was within an easy walk of my home, I visited it, in company with the younger members of my family, on an evening in June, and found, as Mr. Dibley had told me, that the greater part of the Chalk had been refilled into the sewer-trench, and the residue had been spread over the roadway and was now partly trodden down by the traffic. We patiently broke a number of the remaining blocks of chalk, and, in spite of the fact that Mr. Dibley had already carefully worked at the place, succeeded in finding not only a couple of plates of Marsupites with Echinocorys scutatus, etc., but also some smaller inconspicuous plates which, when cleaned from the matrix, proved to be test-plates of the unstalked, free-swimming crinoid, Uintacrinus, Grinnell. These showed the existence at this place of the lower portion of the Marsupites-zone, which has been designated by Dr. Rowe the “Band of Uintacrinus.”
