Mr. J. F. N. Gree:st asked whether there was any evidence thatthe pillars had formed as actual pillars on the lake-floor, likethose found now in certain salt-lakes—as, for example, those ofMono Lake (California), where the structure was developed in con-centric layers, sediment afterwards filling up the gaps. Or and sedimentary deposition simultaneous on a level floor ? Prof. W. J. Sollas thought that this excellent piece of petro-logical work might prove to have an important
