Excerpt from The Story of Fish Life The Story of Fish Life began ages and ages ago. Of this we are assured, not by any written record, but through the labours of those who spend their lives in exploring the dried basins of ancient lakes and seas, searching for the dead which may in cidentally have been preserved therein. The accumulated results of these explorations have provided us with a rich material for study in the shape of the hard parts, at least, of fishes of many kinds, the like of which, in many cases, we shall never see again. But some of these may be traced through a long series of geological forma tions, up to their living descendants, and serve to fill gaps otherwise incomprehensible. They enable us to weave out of the Whole of the collected evidence a story, as plainly as though we had transcribed it from the more familiar print.
