Extract

Two years ago if a Palæontologist had been asked to mention a region in Britain most barren of fossils, he might well have ected that great area of Central Wales which is marked by a sombre grey in the maps of H.M. Geological Survey. And even now, after my laborious search in that country, it cannot be said to be anything better than very poor in organic remains.
