Denysville
About the Post office and now road occur quartzite truffs with small angular quartz fragments and pebbles of quartz magma, on the north end of this rock are two large protogins occur a hand-sized porphyry rock jointed by quartz cut with long-striated sandstone and granite. At this N. 40° W. approximately and dips northeast the veins of dark porphyrite are parallel to these. Fragments of quartz truffs appear as far as the mill on Allen Bridge opposite the bridge in two sections. Quartz occurs, dark stained in color, with field of rhyolite and a very rare small fragment of greenish-black granite. On the east side of this river opposite the church fragments of rocks occur and extend for about on the north end of the grant at 5.8. 4.2-5°. On the east side of the grant V in about 100 yards east are lead-gray quartzite flaccid without fragments, and with intermingled grains of white pyrite. They are colored on the east by sandstone fragments of this type fragments range in size from inches to big ones composed of red sandstone glassy or in pieces packed together as in making the bulk of the rock. This gray truffs are very a trap minerals about 20 feet thick extending N. 47° W.

The quartz truffs reappear on the most side of the creek and in extent 4 to 1. The truffs are very fragmented consisting of rounded dark grayish-brown fragments from granite beds and fine-grained rocks similar to 1198. On the south side of the stream they reappear in fragmented form and are generally cut in thin band of basaltic rock and the 2-foot sounding. The fragmented truffs are interbedded with abundant fractured little fragments (granite, porphyry, black chert on the east end of this zone) and to the southward on the west side at 4-3-7, the truffs are gray colors.
East of Clermont at 1 foot in 4.3-4 occurs a massive dark blue-black very finely-grained rhyolite with cubic felspar phenocrysts displaying wide columnar structures (tree printing). Between this (gray) rhyolite and the fine between 4-3-5 and 4-3-4 occur a patch of blue-limited rhyolite without any events, but grading up into a coarse fragmented zone with fragments of gray buff colored rhyolite in a bed of overprinting. The limited-banded portion at 1198.
The trending strikes N 72° W. and appears to dip southerly but not quite certainly as on several side of the little rock near west of the middle of 4-3-5 occur a bed dark fine-grained rhyolite with white felspar showing concentric circles to large size and end of the me foot sounding in 4-3-4. No fragments, dark fragmented beds occur at present a few yards to the N.E. in the place for a cut hundred yard to the east so far as angle indentation in the store in 8 W.
4-3-6 occur gray light gray truffs generally appermented. A less prominent element 1172-1 foot this boundary between 4-3-5 and 4-3-6 on the corner of the abole, it is running N 80° 5 W in 4-3-6. In our new section a stone stratified side and altering a fault, as which alteration fault glows (northeast N. 20° W.) against hard therefore dark fragmented rhyolite. The full rest of the 2-foot sounding in 4-3-6 is composed of the dark blue glass with felspar phenocrysts.
On the other side on the most side of the river at eastmost 4-3-6 or some 5° E. of the 7-foot sounding, gray, black argillaceous truffs occur weathering gradually gray. Siliceous truffs appear to continue along the east extremity.
4-3-7 The bed ways in large thick-bedded flagging along this line of north to the west end of the river at southmost 4-3-6, feet of north of the 2-foot soundings close seem in the general gray with about 5 inches of extent appears the east of a wider color, vertical bedding N. 50° W. it may be internally closely jointed N.W. but is greatly alike.
In course of this little cut of peas sound.
