Abstract
THERE is probably no sedimentary deposit in the whole series of the stratified rocks with which one is more familiar than the Chalk. This is doubtless due to its peculiar whiteness, and to the fact of its occupying so large an area in our eastern and south-eastern counties, and its prominence in the coast-sections of Yorkshire, Kent, and Sussex, and the opposite coast of France; forming at Dover those white cliffs which gave to our shores their ancient name of Albion.
