Description:Excerpt from Sixth Report of the Boulder Committee: Royal Society of Edinburgh, 1880 The Committee in order to form a Sixth Report have obtained materials from their Convener, Professor Forster Heddle of St Andrews University, William Jolly, Esq., H.M. Inspector of Schools, Inverness, and William Wallace, Esq., High School, Inverness. To make the descriptions of the boulders more intelligible, it has been found necessary, as in former Reports, to annex a few diagrams, which will be found at the close of the Report. I. Notes by Convener. Argyleshire. 1. In consequence of information in the schedule issued by the Committee, and filled up by Mr Montgomery, schoolmaster at Southend, near Campbelton, I went to Southend, and had pointed out by Mr Montgomery boulders at several places there. Mr Montgomery considered these boulders to be granite. If granite, they were different from any I had ever before met with, They were certainly an igneous or primitive rock of some kind, and composed of different ingredients, the chemical nature of which I am unable to state. There appeared to be crystals of white felspar. I could detect no mica. The general mass was a whitish-grey colour. These boulders were pointed out to me at many places.
