Delmar Morgan, published in the _Scottish Geographical Magazine_, vol. vi., pp. 97–98, but the present compilers have much more than doubled the number of entries. It is, however, known to be still incomplete, and any one able to add to the list, will greatly oblige the compilers by sending additions to the Publisher.—A. F. Y. SYNOPSIS OF CONTENTS.
