In his survey of the region Rominger spoke of them as "bubble-like" upheavals of the strata. Recent favorable sections in the quarries permitted the study of these hillocks in detail, when their reef character became apparent. A brief account of the reefs was published in the American Geologist, September,* and a more extended one, with a cross-section, in the annual report of the Geological Survey of Michigan 1901.* Since then I have received from Dr Carl Wiman a copy of his paper on Siluric coral reefs in Gotland, published in 1897, in which he describes . . .
