Generalizing these, it may be said that the terrane is granite and associated horn- blendic and rarely chloritic schists, vertical or dipping south-southeast at high angles, with occasional veins of quartz. The superficial deposit on summits and slopes is a red. residuary clay, derived from the decay of the crystalline rocks, reaching a maximum observed thickness of ten or twelve feet. The upper valleys and ravines are lined with alluvium of maximum observed depths of five to eight feet, although where probably thickest its bottom was not seen. The alluvium is largely formed of red, clayey materials washed down from the slopes and in general is more or less sandy. Both the residuary clays and the alluvium contain occasionally angular pebbles or bowlders of local rocks, but absolutely no erratic material occurs at any altitude. The summits of knolls and ridges generally expose obdurate rock: vein quartz, exceptionally siliceous horn- blendic schist, etc. 2. Quarry Point. -- Here a prominent salient, perhaps 200 feet high, is formed of compact, somewhat siliceous, hornblendic schist, dipping south-southeast 75 to 80. The same obdurate stratum finds a general topographic expression in a ridge extending north-northeast f...
