August 9-1923 Thursday. Springfield to Castleton. Left our haven at 7.34 a.m. for Spring- field to meet Raymond. At 9.45 we are off for Northern Vermont, my fourth geological trip to see the Cambrian. Passing through Bernardston, Mass., a few miles south of the Vermont border, Raymond pointed out the old locality for supposed Lower Helder- berg crinoid stems. The locality is about 1/4 mile north of the Bernardston Inn on the west side of the road back on the hill about 1/2 mile from the road. Formerly there was a small limestone quarry here. The li. has a thickness of not more than 5 feet and is undulating ly slate full of tiny positive casts. The li. is changed to marble and is drawn out, but in places has glistening surfaces as if of silon mica. Crinoid stems are common. Then Raymond told me he got what appears to be Tarsoits but that more show structure under the microscope. He then showed me two speci- mens that I have taken along. They maybe similar to many of Tarsoits, but then must be proving that they are.
