page 414 note 1 In his Presidential Address to the Geological Society of London in 1909, Professor W. J. Sollas (Proc. Geol. Soc., 1909, p. lxxxvii) credits H. Benndorf (Mitth. Geol. Ges. Wien, i, p. 336, 1908) with this pretty analogy, but Oldham has the precedence by just two years (cf. Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc., vol. lxii, p. 456, 1906).

page 415 note 2 On the Causes of the Phenomena of Terrestrial Magnetism, pamphlet, 1890, p. 2. The idea that the Earth's magnetism is due to the electricity generated by the friction between the shell and the core, rotating with a different motion, was suggested by Dr. Wilde in 1902 (Mem. Manch. Lit. Phil. Soc., vol. xlvi, pt. iv, p. 8, 1902). A similar suggestion based also on Halley's conception of a separately rotating inner core was made previously by Capt. (Sir) F. J. Evans in 1878 (“Remarkable Changes in the Earth's Magnetism”: Nature, vol. xviii, p. 80).
