August 9-1918 Friday, Parsons Pond - Daniels Cove It rained lightly during the night but this morning tends to clear. There is no wind to amount to much and one projects are sure that we can go north. By 11 A.M. the tide is high enough to get on the bar, and we grove at that hour without difficulty. The bluff east north of Parsons Pond is all glacial sand and the cliffs are about 35 feet high. Here are no native rocks visible until we get six miles north where "The Arches" are. Here are gr ashes and are surprised to see that the Arches (there are only three of them), one fell may this past years ago during a heavy thunder storm, and long before this must have been two others) are all composed of a light and dark eluted dolo- mitic [illegible] breccia. The rock is much fractured and give the appearance of a pure breccia. The whole appearance of brecciation may however be due to delimitization, (or other rocks are here visible though on shore we see similarly at the Parsons further out in the sea. Some pieces of a green sandstone. The dip of the dolomite is 50 S. 60 E. These dolomites strike into the land to the north and close by the inland (3/4 mile from shore) (Ten 2 miles out of they arches.) great misty facing cliff of Portland Head (530 feet high). This cliff shows the strata dipping somewhat or southeast at a low angle perhaps not as much as 20 degrees. About 2 miles north of the Arches are gr ashes and gravel, mile north where we have lunch. At my line of latitude and one finds the slipp premit (chlorite) sometimes dip 20 S. 30 E. In privately the Parsons 1921 a small brook free again these sandstone and while I could not got the exact angle I clip it did not seem to be greater than 10 deg. with almost critical clips on the arch and gravel? Why does Portland Head stand up as an isolated hill? At first I thought it was brought up by a fault of the first one put under and that the lead was made of if dolomite like that of the Arches. After I saw,
