Extract

Moreseat is in the parish of Cruden, in the east of Aberdeenshire. It lies at an elevation of 300 feet above sea-level, and the surface of the ground slopes to the sea at Cruden Bay, distant five miles to the south. On the north the ground rises gradually, reaching the height of 450 feet above sea in Torhendry Ridge, which is strewn with chalk-flintsingreat abundance.

page 22 note 1 The slope, above Fiesso, begins of course just below the Lago Treniorgio, or nearly at 6,000 feet.

page 22 note 2 No doubt this has been subsequently cut down below the original level, the valley being a large one; the Val Canaria has been cut yet lower.

page 22 note 3 I believe I know of others than those mentioned in this paper, but, as I have not examined them since Mr. Marr's paper was published, will not refer to them.
