jul 22-37 At Mont St.Pierre the Quebec again struck out to sea. From Gros Morne east for many miles, in fact almost to Cape Rosier, we are in a thin series of clay sl and then bedded muds ss, and of a light blue-grey color than the Quebec series. This is identical to series that Logan in 1863 called Hudson River. Stopped at three places to look for fossils but saw none. It seems here in Nfld instead MS and much of the coal for along to sea shore. At 12-30 to 1.30 we are at lunch at Hotel Bon Accueil at Riviere Madeleine. It was a good lunch that cost 1.00. These people will get rich without doing much work. Passed Fox River at 3.30. The Hudson River series is here as farthern south. At about 4.45 we are at Cape Rosier and see close at hand the Cape Bon Ami, and the St.Albans cliffs. Here we turned south.
