page 463 note 1 We regret that our limited space prevents the insertion of the full text of Professor Bonney's Address. Thus the statement of facts relating to the Drifts of Britain have been omitted, but the main arguments relating to the interpretation of the phenomena have been retained.

page 464 note 2 In the remainder of this Address ‘temperature’ is to be understood as mean temperature. The Fahrenheit scale is used.

page 466 note 2 I have doubts whether this is not too great.

page 467 note 1 I take the fall of temperature for a rise in altitude as 1˚ F. for 300 feet, or, when the differences in the latter are large, 3˚ per 1000 feet. These estimates will, I think, be sufficiently accurate. The figures given by Hann (see for a discussion of the question, Report of Brit. Assoc, 1909, p. 93) work out to 1˚F. for each 318 feet of ascent (up to about 10,000 feet).
