Saturday Sep. 3-1932 Wea. TUES. AUG. 17, 1909 Ther. A bright cool morning and I am off to ford over Hum- fernd Brook. All is Highgate slate down to defalls where the mine appears to descrates make the falls and dip down stream or N.W. at mt 20°-25° Farther down stream but on top of the former intruge shale @ of them and manor dolomite over it intraformational. dol. Then the little valley widens out and we see no up- forms along the stream. I went down the Brook far enough to see that our own streams fills and Champlain day slumps. Yet I remember Kiltz telling me there are large dol. up forms along the stream. They must be beyond where Jones. Returned to the Manor house by noon. Learned nothing new this morning. In the afternoon tried any luck in the Highgate forge to see if I could get some fossils in the lower zone and finally located a limestone we nick tricks that girdled a men of trilobites in the same abundance and preservation as in zone 2. Now I cannot get Reynold to work this out for science.
