page 514 note 3 It has indeed been affirmed (Brögger, , Om de senglaciale og postglaciale nivaforand ringer i Kristianiafelted, p. 682Google Scholar) that at the time of the great ice-sheet of Europe the sea-bottom must have been uplifted at least 8500 feet higher than at present. This may be a ready explanation of the occurrence of certain dead shells in deep water, but, unless extremely local, it would revolutionize the drainage system of Central Europe.

This explanation commends itself to the majority of British geologists as an explanation of the noted parallel roads of Glenroy, but it is premature to speak of it as “conclusively shown” (Quart.
