Abstract
I WAS informed a short time ago that a large bone had been found in a gravel-pit near Brough, on the Humber, and went at once to examine the place. I found the “bone” to be a mammoth's tusk of large size, and learnt that other teeth and bones had not infrequently been exhumed in the pit. As this seems to be a new locality for mammalian remains, I think a short description of the deposit may be found useful.
