80 GLACIAL GEOLOGY OF NOVA SCOTIA—HONEYMAN. 
River, we could find our boulders, over another 15 miles. At 
this distance I picked up an amygdaloid last summer. They 
seemed to stop here. Proceeding, we reach Windsor Junction. 
Here we find the usual red drift with our boulders. If we 
were to go by the Intercolonial, we would find drift sections 
with amygdaloids, &c. The last of these we found a few years 
ago at Enfield Pottery and Brick Works in the red clay. This is 26 
miles from Three Fathom Harbour, part of our “Terminal Mor- 
aine,” where we found the last of the amygdaloid boulders on the 
Atlantic Coast. From the Windsor Junction we proceed on- 
wards by the Railway to Winglsor. We shortly pass through 
drift cuttings. In these we found the characteristic boulders in 
abundance. The ballast from them showed many and beautiful 
amyedaloids. The sections are of the only cultivatable land of 
the locality. How largely! the glacier has contributed to the 
sustenance of the inhabitants of the region which we have 
traversed. The underlying rocks only produce barrens. We 
come to Beaver Bank Station. To the right is a quarry of slates 
and paving stones. The rocks are glaciated ; the grooves running 
in Halifax courses. Proceeding, we observe drift sections, chiefly 
on the left hand side the wood. This has the usual appearance, 
and doubtless contains the usual boulders. Coming to the 
vicinity of the disappearance of amygdaloids, &c., on the Wind- 
sor Road referred to, the drift seems to disappear, and does 
not reappear until we reach Newport. For many years this 
interruption seemed unaccountable. We conjectured that the 
transportation had been effected away to the left of the railway. 
I had oceasion, in 1855, to examine the region of Lakelands. 
On the side, a lake near the Windsor Road, and also near the 
house and building, I found the boulders of which I had been in 
quest. I was certainly gratified with the discovery. Loeating 
this position on my “ Geological Map of the Province,” I find the 
name of the lake is L. Pigot, and that my Halifax and Blomidon 
general glacial line almost touches it. It seems to pass almost 
through the site of the buildings. This coincidence is certainly 
striking. The track thus crosses about Oland’s farm, and passes 
to the right of the railway. Coming to Newport we have passed
