At Mile End the top of the Trenton
glaciation. On it rests about one foot of
glacial material and then follows marine
sand with glacial material full of Saxica-
ra, Astarte and Mya truncata. Large
gastropods also occur, Fulgur like.
There are massive Terraces of tr 600
feet or that the sea above time in Cham-
plain time was 600 feet deep. This is an
important matter in paleography and also
in regard to the removal of these marine
deposits.
Left Montreal at 8.05 and got to Ottawa
