The entire glaciated area of New Jersey falls within the 

 domain of the Hudson lobe, and its relation to that lobe is pre- 

 cisely the same as that of Berkshire county, Mass., except that 

 the former lies on the west limb of the lobe and near the 

 extreme limit of glaciation. If the principles used for Berkshire 

 county are valid, they ought to be equally valid for the west 

 slope of the Hudson valley, including northern New Jersey. We 

 have seen above that a discontinuous character in the recessional 

 moraines is not necessarily due to dissynchronous oscillations of 

 the ice-front, and that, at least in the Berkshires, there are ways 

 in which the continuity of the successive ice-fronts can be 

 demonstrated,- despite the extremely fragmentary character of 

 the morainic deposits.
