Mr. Harker said that to listen to this paper made one regretmore keenly that the Author had not been spared to continue the?work so well began. The remarkable relations described in thepaper between intimately-associated basic and acid intrusions hadescaped his (the speakers) notice when working with Mr. Marr inthe Lake District; but they found a parallel, even in some of theminor details, among the Tertiary intrusions of the Inner Hebrides. The origin of the garnets, so striking a feature of the Lake-District rocks as a whole, was an important question, upon whichthe Authors researches would undoubtedly throw light. Theuneven distribution of the mineral pointed to a metamorphic origin,and the detailed nature of the distribution was such as to connectthe garnets with metamorphism of the dynamic kind. Prof. Sollas said that he joined
