August 22-1918 Thursday. Pot laundus,
A fair ointy warm morning, wind in land from west
and one mile round for another day.
August 23-1918 Friday. Pot laundus.
William Lemiere said that the weather usually changes on
Friday and that partly one could go south. Slog, This morning
is in right and the wind from the land near. We are up
early and are off at 8:05 for Sarafamil to get our mail. We got
to the place at 8:05. It is fortunate that we called before I
got Boston's registered letter with the check for $20 dollars.
We turned south at 9:40 A.M. At 1:40 we are opposite
Totle Head, and 6:40 we are again at Carr Head.
In passing Portland Head I again took a good look at
it and concluded that the rock in it must be either dolomite
and if Beal mountain age like that of the Arches, or of the Carr
Head Cr. ometite. The front fault face of the head seems to be
in line with the strike of the Arches. The north canister of
sandstone for elsewhere these archs do not make cliffs and
only appear in the reef as a rule (Ref: 130-131).
Parson Pond Head is probably Carr Head strikes and
appears to stand in line with the second or minor fault of
Lora Head. See page 117 and map.
