Saturday, August 23, continued and once commonly rein guarant all under the same with layers of green clay. Hills reworked into the Bmarentine. The Bmarentine clearly lies horizontal and angular unconformably over the Devonian cross- folded SS, on clay [4] and to the W on the old SS. Then for 1000' W there is sand rock exposing no beds. Evidently there is SS here, like the additl? cross-folded ones seen to the E, where the Bmarentine overlies those SS and clay [4]. Farther W to the Ford running over of Belle Ance P.O. and the fiddinam's houses and fir roads, but are three small points composed of clay [5] and therefore of considerable thickness. Aim to strike it must be 1000' with the regular dip of N° S.E. The most norsting of these three points is just E of the ford or beneath Belle Ance P.O. On two of these points I again saw the Bmarentine angularly overlying clay [5] of the Devonian series. Belle Ance Crre has the regular cross-folded SS, The distance across is about 700. The northern arm of Belle Ance Crre has clay [6] that dips S into the sea at N° -20°. The thickness of this clay [6] cannot be more than 10'-15' and it is hardly to SS like those below it, but if with it one sees not
