Our knowledge of the occurrence of these peaty layers is due to Mr. Peter Jack, who first noticed them, and to Mr. Robert Dunlop, who brought me samples for examination, and who afterwards accompanied me on a visit I made to the spot, showed me the peat in place, and helped me to dig out further samples. Mr. Jack sent a large sample which he had dug out himself from a different layer than that from which the previous specimens were token. I also made a special visit somewhat later, and took from the different patches as much material as 1 could get access to.

Mr. Reid considers that the presence of these Arctic Willows at the low levels where they are found proves the climate of Scotland to have been 20 degrees colder at the ti...
