Windsor, July 5 - 1912
Should Bell run the section to Maxviers Point.
Maxviers Point dolomite dips N.N.E. at an angle
estimated at about 45°. Dolomite somewhat broken and
the rocks showed me one another and slickensided,
The dolomite lies in a distinct syncline with a somewhat eroded
and slickensided center.

Maxviers Point
In coming to Maxviers Point one sees to the northward of the
Point in the bottom of the River an island about 100 feet
long made up of dolomite with gypsum farther to the
northwest, i.e. under the dolomite. Is this the
dolomite of the Grinders quarry gone with the gypsum
that one sees at high tide line near the Bridges? The
distance between the two limestones at Maxviers Point
is not less than 300 feet and may be more. This is partly
the Grinders li. and the lower gypsum but this Bell
will determine.
