C—Quicksand. 
D—W ater-bearing gravel. 
a, a, a, a—Quicksand pockets. 
Both the clay and quicksand are entirely free from pebbles, so much 
so that notwithstanding they contain a large percentage of lime (10 to 14 
per cent.), the ingredients are so finely pulverized that no damage has 
ever been known to occur from the formation of quicklime in burning 
wares made from them. The clay is almost entirely free from grit and 
the quicksand contains only extremely fine sand. These facts indicate 
that both have originally been deposited in quiet water. There is, how- 
ever, no indication of stratification to be found in the clay, but on the 
contrary the entire deposit (so far as it has been observed) has the 
appearance of having been greatly disturbed and subjected to a kneading 
process. Moreover, the presence of these detached masses of quicksand 
in the body of clay precludes the supposition that the mass as a whole 
remains as originally deposited.
