"been together for the young man. The night closes in around us with a dense fog so that one cannot see a ship's length ahead and yet the stars can, seem above. Thursday, July 22 - 1897 Off Nova Scotia, Rose at six A.M. There is a splendid clear day before us and to our left there is a splendid view of Seaton Island with its two light houses. A number of houses are seen on the north-eastern end very much scattered. Along the south-eastern shore of this island the rocks are more shorn. Near the centre there is a marked unconform- ity north of which the rocks dip pretty 450 some of the beds are a deep red shale, a sandstone or limestone. Shale north of the latter. The northern light-house rests on glacial sand. At 8.30 we passed Cow Bay Head showing about 30 feet of the bed remarkably well. The dips also various and almost vertical near the centre for White took a picture spot. They head a good little to the north of Flint Island. The beds are a light red or pink color.
