The gneisses and mylonite streaks in one direction of a white slate, along the grain of planar movements. The two then are planes hiding life.
Between the brick red sandy (shale) goes there is a thick deep hidden coarse sandstone that has been operated [illegible] as a guide. It places the material shown decides cross bedding. [Crossed out: of the dense type]. There are probably more such sandstones gone. As I go along it is seen that there are not clunes but irregular channel deposits.
Thus,

Farther east than in an alternation of sandstone over the brick red shales. At the junction of the shale with the sandstone may be seen small sin cracings of the coarse type but in the cracks there is no sand worked in. The limestone path is now nearly all gone. Only coarse grit and sandstone at the brick red shale.
