PLATE 14. 
Figure 1.— Fine Banpine in Cray, Woopsviuue, N. H. 
The specimen figured was taken about fifteen feet below the top of the highest clay deposit at the 
Lemarre clay-pit. Just above this horizon these fine bands are contorted and cut off on top. A glacial 
pebble was taken from the mass lying on this contorted zone. The bands above the disturbed part are 
at least two inches thick, but within five feet they are not over one half inch thick, and at the top of the 
deposit are fully as thin as the bands shown in this figure. Such evidence would appear to point to an 
advance of a thin ice tongue, which destroyed many layers, as evidenced by the contorted and cut-off 
zone, and then a retreat, steady and rapid, which closed the glacial episode in the vicinity of Woodsville. 
The bands shown are the thinnest found in the Woodsville locality. 
Figure 2.— Fine BanpING IN SLATE TAKEN FROM PLEIStoceNs Drirr, Newton Cantre, Mass. 
The banding of this specimen is much like that shown in the Woodsville clay, Figure 1, and also 
much like the fine banding at Squantum.
