Wednesday Sep. 12 - 1934
In the afternoon from Coranville
through Sreetley to St Pirrers and to one mile
south of Coranville, to see the highly metamorphosed
Ordovician sequence at not described but
reduced to to outcrop 270 feet against the
3275' less than one-half mile away, See Clark's letter of 11.
This is the crucial area bringing two sec-
tions originally one and half miles apart now within
one-half miles of each other. See Clark's pages
11-12. The sequence and lithology are identical,
but the thickness is reduced to 1/4 - th of that
to the W.
The crucial structure whether the Sutton Out
crops may be an out thrust or an underthrust
is proven by the clearance to be an underthrust.
If it were an out thrust the clearance should
be [illegible] but initially dips to the easting
therefore an
underthrust. The gently thermal Oak Hill sed.
are much
resisting
metamorphosed. This is the main evidence why the
