Corner of the Beach
Friday August 29 - 1930
Too stiff and tired today to work.
At nine A.M. took a walk on the regular auto road and on my way back when near The Libert Hotel who should just me out of a wagon auto but from Kindle. At first I did not care to talk much to him because of his suspicion that I was prospecting in his territory. He forgets that I have specialized in Barre stratigraphy for more than 30 years.
He is very much perplexed over the structure and especially about his place where he got the Devonian Cambrian fossils. He said the place was within 1/2 miles of the Corner and twice volunteered to take me to the place provided I would not put in the locality. I will not put him on my mind but I did not care to commit myself to him. I did, however, say that he probably had a herd caught up by the fault that I have been tracing out during the past three days.
If the weather is good tomorrow and I feel strong I may try to find the place, of the Cambrian, but I have no idea where the locality is other than that it must be along the front side of the hills facing the large Barachois. I met Kindle again in the late afternoon but we spoke only a few minutes.
