looked for channeling, rippling swelling, and intraformational conglomerates but saw nothing of the kind. Nor in the flood shale partings is there the slightest trace of organic markings - trails etc. Despite face this evidence the nature of the material indicates there must have been currents to move the sediment. The climate must have been a humid one, but if a sea deposit why not some trace of organisms. Can these deposits be tidal flood plain deposits? If or why are no cross bedding and channeling? If they are off the sub-aerial side of a delta the fresh water may be the cause why no trace of life is present. But what brought the limestone pebbles. Clay? can't find sea cliffs nor fine streams. Can ice have been at work, can ice bringing together the material that the melting waters distributed over and over flood plains? The regularity of the material here about the Shop Farm seems to militate against this view, but farther west the C Conglomerate has considerable green sandy laminated shales in blocks of to nearly 3 feet long and 8 inches thick. Here too the li. blocks are large and much more numerous in
