Pierce July 16-1913, Wednesday. Came by the new railway from Matapedia to a station about seven miles from Pierce. Then by carriage to the village. A beautiful day. First one walked to the top of St. Anne, 1200 feet above the sea. The view is magnificent. Thought I heard an Anticosti although it may have been a fog horn. Gaspe and Malbay peninsulas also looked out finely. Everywhere one sees the very thick Amarantine conglomerates. Below the belts are almost exclusively limestone and above quartz predominates although there is much limestone elsewhere. Where there is any finding matrix it is a sandy shale and red. In places it goes over into all red shales. The limestone pieces are less rounded than the quartz, and as a rule the limestone pieces are larger than/2 few exceed 4 inches. Among the pieces are red jasper rocks and Andree thought that they contained Radiolaria. The Amarantine is a very thick mass of continental deposits.
