Capro correleto with the Carboniferous of Orms. It is a series of thin redded sometimes (mnr flint) that are laminated, intertoddled with some schales (mnr schist). It is cut by many trap dikes, usually thin ones, but one appeared like 20 feet thick. A far away (one mile) are small rods of granite so that the metamorphism is partly ordinary due to the igneous injections. There has been seen a fossil here. Reynold tells one that these Carb. rocks lie in line of strike with the Proteric Carb. of Orms. See Capro report on the rocks of this land and the Portland area. Bring through York and or Northward see mine of these Carb. rocks. See the beach pebbles and road samples collected. SAT to Harvard Square at 5.30 and South Station at 6. P. M. At 6.30 drives off in New Haven by train and get home at 11 P. M.
