of rocks, while that on the opposite side of the Basin was derived 
from the geological formation of the Cobequids and all the inter-

LuMBER YARD. 
I would add to the accumulations of the “Cow Bay type” an 
elevation in the Lumber Yard. On this are the remains of one 
of the “eld forts.” 
CONNECTING LINES. 
A passes from Navy Island along the east side of the Basin to 
the Narrows, near Dartmouth Railway Bridge. It then crosses 
over to Richmond to Foit Needham. Proceeding it reaches the 
Queen’s Dock Yard, at the late Observatory Hill. It then ex- 
tends to the east side of the Citadel Hill. Thence it goes to the 
Luwber Yard, and then it passes to the Fort at the east side of 
entrance to the N. W. Arm. 
B begins at the west side of George’s Island, which lies in the 
harbour opposite the Lumber Yard. Thence it goes southerly to 
the west side of Cornwallis Island (McNab’s). Proceeding along 
this Island it connects Thrum Cap and Shoal. 
C may commence at the drift at the corner of Preston and 
Lawrencetown roads. Thence it passes to the accumulation at 
the top of Dartmouth Cove It then extends along the shore to 
the neighbourhood of Fort Clarence at the Eastern Passage. 
D may be called the Terminal Line. This may begin at the 
accumulation at the old fort (of A line), and pass across the 
mouth of harbour to Thrum Cap. Thence it proceeds N. E. to 
the eastern side of the Passage. It then extends along the shore, 
to Cow Bay and Osborne Point. From this it extends to Law- 
rencetown Head; from this to Half Island, and then to Three 
Fathom Harbour. 
The Triassic Amygdaloids from Blomidon and Partridge Island 
which I regard as the prime characteristic of the drift of the 
accumulation, ete., which I have thus connected, have their ex- 
treme easterly points of occurrence at—
