38 200 yards. M.W. series of beds on west side of North Lube, in the continental border, &c. 22 feet about 25 feet of greenish gray and black, show scales of uniform characters, but not worked for slates, and with a couple of thin varides between 4 or 5 miles thick. The beds dip N.W. the shore for a distance of about 70 yards. They are level in the middle, and undulate toward land but in the northwestern half strike N. 48° E. and dip M.W. at an angle of 23°, to S.E. exactly. N.15° W by S. E. Strata are extremely rare in the valley. A few myosaurus nodules exposed clear with a few Lingula, and a shark's tooth found with a few large Ceratostoma. Bay receives this fossil. are Gini 3A. The scales appear to be equivalent to those in 6.24.7 if also Pembroke gray. There should be several of a red phylite flow channeling the flows well developed. These phylites for to 1224 and form clay pipes up. But extending to 1224, 10 yards. The flow is perforable with the smaller which dip up in the phylite and the flow lines of the phylite to have the same strike and dip in the underlying strata. A slight development has been seen. It shows the columnar internal structure clearly above of the shell. The phylites is cut by a 5 foot trap dike, 1225. In both the sides, the underlying phylite flows have restored pressure filled with splinters to the petine views in the slate expands to a width of 10 miles and another seen a couple of feet away is nearly a foot uniformly thick. Several veins in the phylites are 3 miles thick. Specimens from veins in the shale, are 1226, 1227. But shale as cut by a couple of phylite dikes and by a coarse trap (granodioric) strike about 15° N.W. at a low angle under phylite flows. The course is not overlaying the beds in the N.W. but the phylite flow line in hand, along the time for only a few feet to give to a coarse trap veins, 1229. All constant in trends N. 80° W. A couple of specimens of Grammys's cuplet may be observed in the shale with the tip end of the outcrop. 39 Red Point. End of Red Point Green sheared trap Amphidoloidal trap.
