10 GEOLOGY OF AYLESFORD—HONEYMAN. 
Opposite side. We observe an outcrop of bedded rock similar to 
that noticed on the other side of Canaan Road, near the gneissoid 
strata. We miss the Diorite dykes, which are of frequent 
occurrence in Annapolis and Digby. We had been led to expect 
them by the occurrence of the diorite boulders already noticed 
on Ormsby Road. Our investigations, however, have been so 
far satisfactory. Returning to the Jackson Road we take a 
longer road than that by which we came, and return to Ayles- 
ford by Mill Village. 
We propose crossing North Mountain to Morden, on the 
Bay of Fundy. The Auburn Station, according to the railway 
measurement, is two miles west of the Aylesford Station. The 
former is on the Morden Road. On this road, about two miles 
north of the station, we come to the foot of North Mountain. 
On our way we observe granitic, basaltic and amygdaloid 
boulders. Of course the occurrence of the two last is as ex- 
pected. The continuance of the granite boulders is puzzling. 
On the top of the mountain are abundance of outcrops of rocks. 
Amyegdaloids, amygdaloids, amygdaloids, with gray and red bases. 
About two miles from Morden we notice the absence of granitic 
boulders, and we come toa rock with little or no amygdaloid. 
It is a trap, without the characters of the two former. Reach- 
ing Morden, we proceed to the shore to look for a shore section 
of the rocks of the Mountain. Here we find the amygdaloid, 
with the other trap rocks seemingly overlying. Near the junc- 
tion we find the overlying rock, permeated with veins of Zeolites. 
Out of these we collect many fine specimens. At the point the 
amygdaloids disappear, and we find ledges of the overlying trap. 
In these we observe abundance of agates. None of these tempt 
us. They are destitute of lines, fortification or other. We 
have not met with basalt in situ. Our granite boulders have 
not advanced thus far. The arrangement of formations from 
Morden to the south of Canaan Road, in the South Mountain, in 
descending order, is the Igneous rocks, Triassic, Silurian, Cam- 
brian (?), Archaean, with superficial post-pliocene. Distance 
thirteen miles. 
We go along the line of railway from Auburn towards
