A couple of hundred yards further s.e. occurs a little

A) possible as indurated fine grained tuffs
striking N 62°W and thick bedded and containing
the Chonetes in abundance together with small conis
and a Trochoneca like gastropod, B distinctly
fragmental beds with fragments a cm or more of coarse
grained purple tuffs. A,B,C not more than 30 feet
thick on surface.
On the south side of the inlet on Wilson's
Stream west of the road N there occur some
stratified indurated fine grained tuffs interbedded
with a few inches of splintery gray shale and a few
inches of splintery red shales and some bands
of coarse grained and distinctly fragmental tuffs
these beds strike N 40°W, dip NE 45° are
about 50 feet wide and [illegible] are underlain
by massive tuffs.
the west side of Wilson's Stream below the con-
posed of a varied assortment of pink & reddish shales,
purple slaty fine fleck gray's greenish argillite
poppygray (flints) with some few fragmental beds, at the
1.52.6 and 0.53.
on the west bank between 1.52.6 and 0.53.
occurs some indurated gray & gray slates resembling
colors celastics except for having a glassy texture.
A couple of hundred yards to the southeast, at the
2 foot sounding in 1.53.8 occurs a few feet of red
argillaceous tuffs similar to 1200 splinting against
slates fragmentally.
The slates continue down to and including
1.32 all the point in 4.3.2 but along the southwest side
of this point below high tide occurs some ledges
A of dark purplish red shale, gray & green shales V
greenish fragmental tuffs altogether only a few
feet thick and containing a few Dalmanella
