"more galbros and [illegible] in the
point in N.W. 8.21.7" (a problem)
by a cent. I found 50 feet (exposed) of
black bedded porphyry tuff,
successively lower & normally with
angular lapillae. A specimen
without the lapillae is [no 5]. These
tuffs are of a very dark matrix with
dark fragments, quite different
from the typical and tuffs. They
appear to be basic. They are
underlain by a washed agglomerate
in a mound of dark red
color. The strike runs around
from N 60 just above the middle
of 8.21.7 to N.30 E. at the
lower edge. Dip 27-530 E.
