Grand Greve, Saturday Aug. 17- 1929 [19608] Spent the morning at the shore of Little Basse about 1/2 miles north of Grand Greve. Here occurs the hardest ls of the Basse series and they strike along the shore east for about 1/3 mile with the same 20 feet of strata. Man fork fels is too hard to handle but above it weathers it heats up into an irregular bedding showing many kinds of joints, all of which remain unexploited. The fauna remains most of the Boshani sort with a few Ordovician holdovers. It is most a backis- pred fauna in which one sees not a trace of cephalopods and only some Tetraconuls. The contact of the Basse ss with the ls is shown to within three feet of me an other. It appears to be a sharp contact and there certainly is no transition zone. Evidently there was a hard here, emergence of the sea bottom to land followed by a long time of delta submergence. The sandstone is distinctly fine set through Basse Bay; is fine grained and without coarse emp. Of the ss one sees not a few tens of feet and then a long reach over to the Basse ss continuation up the bay to Basse and far around. Stayed all afternoon at the Greve home reading the novel Madame X, a good story with a fine moral. It raised some.
