At the museum may be seen a good Collection of Fern ledge plants, They also have a few insects, I saw six specimens. They are said to have more. The other types are at Montreal in the McGill University Museum. Out of the Pottery line times they have a specimen of Eogoon described as acadensis. The curator is William McIntosh. He is willing to let us have material, has a lot of Silurian fossils gathered about 20 miles away from St. John's. These look like Mozelark fossils from Arizona but not decidedly so. The commonest fossil is an Incinulus, Rhypidomella hybrida R. like pygelliana. Also saw Leptaena Thambriales. It may be nice to borrow this material for Grace Dean. Got off the train at Leri. Stopping at St. Louis Hotel in Quebec.
