metamorphosed they don't look like very hard forms. Holman said he found a trilobite here but he has since lost it. He probably had no trilobite, Farther east the lie, are almost all of slate and then they become more and more sandy and finally come in the Street series I may find a half sandstone. We come then at several places and finally at Perkins's summer camp at Dundy Pond. It is all much meta- morphosed but still the bedding is very good. Hardly the series is for detail by color and again it's very dark a new thrust. Mainly quartz juts out some zone of slate. One sees no evidence of near shore Hemmons, no ripple, no coarse sand, no seaweed or cryptomitzi. The white mica probably came from the highly metamorphosed series. It appears to me that the metamorphic series must be regarded, cutting Preambrian. It is part I may have Bunson's fault lines. On either side lie different unconnected sea washes. However all that I have seen is a most difficult series of rocks to understand, because of the metamorphism and the closed folded structure. Stopping at the Windsor Hotel, with Raymond and Purkiss.
