The perliferous slate series of

around the broad gneiss-gran
intruding down into 6,558 and then
to abut in a fault plane as shales
against a series of purple & green tuffal
content ash beds, and including a few bits of
purple shale. The fault plane strikes approx.
N. 80° E. and is somewhat simoonous. In the east 1/2
the fault plane is occupied by a blue-gray rhyolite
dike, near where the perliferous older slate
Broad Cove series yielded some good ostracoda and
small branches and a few of the hummocky-like gastrol

on about 1/2 of feldspar phenocrystic glass; a species

fields below B. coveless, the red slate as the only rocks cropping
and there. It is hardly possible to tell the supposition that they are
replaced entirely in with a short distance & slakes, and it appears
greatly probable that some faulting greatly disturbed some clasts
in the southwestern of the supposed intrusion passage from the
red shales into the conglomerats of the typical Perry series. How
ever the red shales do occur intercalated with the constrictures and
conglomerates in the railroad cuts, and the red slakes only,
the newly cropping out below the railroad at Table Flats.

Pembroke purple shales, Tuesday Aug. 27, '07.

As the dam isolates the pot office in Pembroke are ce
pursued in the S.E. side of the cove about 25 feet of limestone
striking N. 38° W. dipping 27° E. N. 60° E. these rocks are dark
purple shales with generally no discernible folding and
volcanism vertical in the normal manner. A large
crusts of light grit shale another & granules tuff that
slates with mud couch, was included with the Pembroke purple shales.
Only fossil observed was a little Lingula which is not rare.
It is greatly disturbed in various directions disregarding
the position of the different specimens of in slanting out
the direction of splitting. (Not selected)
The shales continue up into the clump led along the
cut bank in the Bunnarogman Town just past the W.T. section
the thickness of the till being greater. Accompanying them the
shale continues above the top of the hill inside the
nearby granite slate there is also a little bit of black purp
nearly black shale, and a little sort gray slate.
At upper down at the north end of the village
I think more of the assumed purple tuffs = 20-

The public is the stream
I only see the red purples red shales as a very few
red-bed like nothing across the edge of the cut this
at a very low angle.
At the river mode opposite the claypit prolongs
the red slakes strikes N. 26° W. and dips at an angles of 25° N. E
west of the Conway region, the purple shales
strike N. 25° W. and dip at an angle of 38° N. 60° E. These
red shales as here seem to be several purplish tuffs
occur in places. Specimen 1179.
To the south of the cut a little, also some
smaller shales has resulted the normal gneiss very
splitting slate. Striking N. 25° W. dipping 38° N.
