(This inset is brought to the notice of the readers of this issue of the “Proceedings,” not with the intention of endorsing the views therein stated, but out of respect to one of the chief founders of this Society, the late Dr. W. Allen Sturge, whose immense activities in pre-history are well known, and whose critical acumen led him to favour the acceptance of Drayson's contention as a WORKING HYPO- THESIS for the elucidation of the various ages to be assigned to flint cultures in East Anglia. Several discoveries since his death have done much to favour an unexpected, extension of the stages of man's progress, and of the enormous antiquity to be assigned to primitive man, whilp certain facts on the astronomical sidtihave so strengthened the position of Drayson's supporters as to make their claims a matter inviting serious attention.)
