page 211 note 1 This direction differs from that given by Messrs. Peach and Home, who state that “in Papa Stour, the trend is N. or N. 28° W.” Messrs. Peach and Home could not have been aware of, or must have forgotten these remarks by Professor Geikie, when they state that “he carefully avoids expressing any opinion regarding the direction of the glaciation of these islands” (Geol. Mag. for Feb., p. 68).
