Abstract
YOUR correspondent in NATURE, vol. xxi. p. 32, on the above subject has evidently misunderstood the notice (NATURE, vol. xx. p. 641). The rocks in question, though belonging to what is generally known as the “Old Red Sandstone,” contain Silurian fossils, which confirms the opinion of myself and others that the lower Old Red should be regarded as the upper part of the Silurian formation.
