August 8-1918, Thursday. Parsons Pond. The day started in dark but by noon it was a clear sunny day. As our boat is too large to get admr. in Parsons Pond we enjoyed a fisher man's dory boat and with one drag to land in left the village at 8 A.M. headed for the inner end of Parsons Pond. Got back at 6 P.M. having measured a section nearly three miles long. This section is described in detail below. (they stand on red shales) He started the section at the upper oil wells and briefly described yesterday. It is from here less than 1/2 miles across the strike to the Portu gneic rocks, in this distance I judge all the rocks to be of the same series as those to the northward. These to be added to the section described below. All of the strata give evidence of being deposited in very shallow water and outside of the grafitolite and my small Lingulas we sees no prints, nor even fusoids or worm borings. The sandstone and shale sandstones all show the effect of grave omr, a sort of riffing. The shales are certain of shallow water. That the thin bedded lie. are also of shallow water is sometim thrifty and seen in that they are always accompanied by intraformational conglomerates. The li. engl. of Parsons Pond have nothing in common with the Carr Head conglomerate. The latter is made up of large blocks while those of Parsons Pond are all of small pieces (usually if then lie, 1/2 inch to 1 inch thick and from 2 to 6 inch long. At rare situations one sees pieces up to 18 inches across) and subrounded. At other and rarer intervals the conglomerate is made up of small angular pieces usually all under 1/2 inch across. These gives show the dense character plainly and the thinner grases are probably also all lenses. These Congl. are never always associated with the thin bedded dure colored lie.
