See the top photo of these Cryptogras.
Further development being about 100 feet above the railroad track.
The Beedmantown is here replete with Cryptograss. [I]t's at 100 feet above the line are Cretacypen, Tintal and Patropodreyus lommadii.
At about one mile from the [illegible], there is another fault. It dips
and 120 feet down through the B.
is to 30 degrees due east. From here in 115 feet mine of B, with many Cryptograss. Here there
is also the undulating originally,
line that separate the light colored yellowish Beedmantown from
the dark-fay Chazy [I]t's the same lithology as in the great
quartz seen this many. There can be no doubt that the
Beedmantown is decidedly broken for land interval from
the Chazy.
Cryptograss goes to within 30 feet of the Chazy
Chazy, we saw many
and here at 115 feet beneath the [illegible] Tintal Cretacypen (have 2 specimens).
It is there upon 30 feet of the Beedmantown that we have now
seen three times beneath the undulating line that separates the
B from the Chazy.
What we saw of the Beedmantown this afternoon has
a thickness of about 240 feet.
The Chazy lies as on the south side of East Beech upon
about 2 to 3 feet of marble and beds. Hamley gives the thickness as 870 feet.
The Chazy antiquities along the coast for about one mile.
On the lower part of the Chazy we saw another core
with the Brandon dolomite let down. The northern faulted wall
of the core is outcropping striking S. 20 E.
Vertical fault
Chazy this fault was
Core and area
not seen.
Here are other small faults in the Chazy but all of nearly similar
gear things, as the dip remains uniform.
Lumban says the Table Head beds are faulted down. This may account
for the small thickness seen here, only 74 feet. The same may be true for the Parsons.
