"Tuesday July 19-1910 Forteau, Labrador. "A bright sunny day and no wind. Mosquitoes and flies bad. "Collected all morning at the top of the Reef back of Mrs Flamin's house (hill northwest of Forteau Bays), in the Olenelles - Portyipas beds. Here have a large lot of this material. No fine Q. heads however. "In the afternoon examined the gulch opposite Forteau village on the east side of the bay and a little farther inland than the head of the bay. A small brook has cut its way through the Reef and to the sea which one followed, making a good part of it. "Here one sees the red sandstones well exposed and that towards the top consist of a series of thin beds (8-172 inches thick) separated by shaly sandstones of about the same thickness. These beds here take the place of the heavy bedded white sandstones. Just over these come in the coral reefs but these are rarely in the form of reefs here, rather than bedded regularly bedded and nodular bedded limestones. About 50 feet is here once more exposed. From the upper ten feet or thereabouts one gets many fine layers and fine Archaeocyathus. Toothed shell stone cuts ten inches long and not more than four inches wide. The top of known bed was broken off so that the cut was originally about 12 inches long. The corals in this layer do not enclose reefs and therefore the single corallites develop once. All of the large forms have conical outsides. The other fossils are scarce and only a few brachiopods were seen here. Does this evidence point to close proximity of the shore? Across Forteau Bay to the west the reefs are present and especially along the Straits at Forteau Point."
