Abstract
IN 1879, three Bootham School masters, assisted by local naturalists, made a thorough survey of Askham Bog near York. Their report was published in a magazine published for the Society of Friends Schools called the Natural History Journal. Recently this report was discovered by Mr. Clifford Smith, the present biology master at Bootham, who had the happy Idea of making another survey of the same area. The present report is a record of the patient team-work of ninety Bootham boys under Mr. Smith's general direction.
