78 GLACIAL GEOLOGY OF NOVA SCOTIA—HONEYMAN. 
of glaciated surfaces extending from Tower Road to Pleasant 
Street. Two remarkably beautiful exposures extend completely 
across the street (Ivanhoe), and form a pavement for nearly half 
its length. My assistant and I have carefully taken the courses 
of lines, without number, on all the surfaces, and find a uniform 
direction—S. 30 E., N. 30 W. There is not the variation that 
we find at Prince of Wales Tower. No body, but one moving in 
a uniform direction, could make such a track. 
EXHIBITION GROUNDS. 
Walking in these grounds I observed one boulder, and after- 
wards several of the same kind, large and small. I recognized 
their basaltic character. I examined pieces of them according to 
my usual methods and found that they contained magnetite and 
also olivine. They were thus identified with the basalts of 
Blomidon and Partridge Island. 
Camp HILLt. 
This is a well known locality on Halifax Common, adjoining 
“Camp Hill Cemetery.” According to the measurements of the 
Royal Engineers, it measures 700 feet north and south, and 500 
feet east and west. Its height above the mean tide of Halifax 
Harbor is 175 feet, its distance fiom the Harbor is 1350 yards, 
and from the North West Arm one mile. I have just discovered _ 
that this is a grand accumulation of the “Cow Bay type.’ Its - 
constitution has been disclosed by military and other excavations. 
These occur throughout its length and width. Here I have 
collected all the usual Archean and Triassic boulders, some of 
the latter are very beautiful. The collection numbers 28 speci- 
mens. My assistant, Henry Piers, also made a_ collection. 
Shortly after one of the lady teachers of the “Science Class” 
brought to the Museum a collection from this locality. One of 
the trap boulders had a bright amethyst vein. I consider this 
as one of the most important localities. 
Biock House HItt. 
According to the Royal Engineers measurement this hill is two 
miles north of Camp Hill, and 225 feet above Bedford Basin.
