granite country, has it Laurentia? And from it was being stripped the Lower and Upper Cambrian limestone in early Ordovician time. [illegible] The limestone conglomerate beds are in greater quantity in the outer or warp ridge. In all the other seen today the pebble are smaller and in general they are reduced in greater quantity to pebble under 1 inch. The outer a warp ridge does not appear to repeat itself many of the other ridges, and its dip is to the N.E. at about 30 degrees, as the graph. Later I saw that on the S.W. side the conglomerate dip almost vertically to the S.W. Frank Island in therefore an anticline.
