Abstract
WHILE residing upon the South Downs I observed, during hard frosts, that prisms of ice exuded from small pieces of chalk, and having their sections identical with the piece of chalk. It is clear that the prism was formed by the moisture passing through the chalk by capillary attraction. May not this explain the formation of the filaments described by the Duke of Argyll?
