Friday, September 1-1933 Wea. Mon. Nov. 1, 1909 Ther. Pieces, while the bulk of the material is of the thin redded flue-banded ls. None of this material is foreign, and all of it came to seem in place beneath the brecciated bed; and the tisherm ls came to lie in place. Evidently there was a tisherma nearby that the sea undermined breaking it up and sliding down down to sea bottom. There is absolutely no break in declination beneath the great break in way. The strata below are like those above the slidem brecciated. Beneath the brecciated bed is a zone 3' thick of thin redded flue ls. These are all deformed and were deformed subsequent to deposition. This was done after the breccia bed slid over the sea bottom. Tow W in south bank follows beneath emyl. dl. 0-4' Granit. A zone of thin redded flue ls 0'-4' Granite dl. emyl. bed 0'-2' Thin redded flue ls 1'-5' Granite dl. emyl. swelling from 18"-4' All within trace orange at mt 8'-10' Irregular redded strata.
