page 115 note 1 I may here mention that this museum has been started with the hope of illustrating, as completely as possible, the Natural History of the district. Any help from naturalists visiting the country would be most gladly received, as the working resources are somewhat limited.
page 115 note 2 I have placed in the Keswick Museum of Local Natural History a map of the District on the 1-inch scale, upon which are marked in different colours and patterns (1) all pre-historic remains, (2) Roman remains, (3) camps, etc., of uncertain age; and a detailed account of these will be found in a paper entitled “Notes on Archaeological Remains in the Lake District,” published in the Transactions of flie Cumberland and Westmoreland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society, J878, p. 241.
