Abstract
AS was perhaps natural in a year when a geologist, o^ Dr. Bonney, was president of the association, there was an excellent gathering at Section C, which was fortunate in being able to welcome, in addition to the president, Prof. A. P. Coleman, three other geologists from Canada, Dr. R. Bell, Mr. J. B. Tyrrell, and Prof. Spencer. The meetings of the section were well attended, the number of papers presented was sufficient to afford a full programme for the last day (Wednesday), and several well-sustained discussions took place. Any account of the sectional proceedings would be incomplete without a reference to the interesting series of excursions arranged by Mr. B. Hobson and Mr. Cosmo Johns. On Saturday there was a whole day excursion to the Castleton district under the leadership of Dr. Arnold Bemrose, while four half-day excursions were carried out. The sectional dinner was attended by more than sixty members. Successful joint meetings were held with the geographical section and agricultural sub-section; the papers read on the latter occasion are referred to in the report of the subsection.
