  The 
  relative 
  position 
  of 
  this 
  boulder-bed, 
  and 
  the 
  beds 
  forming 
  the 
  

   eastern 
  end 
  of 
  Naikenpolliam 
  ridge, 
  lying 
  immediately 
  to 
  the 
  north, 
  can- 
  

   not 
  be 
  made 
  out 
  owing 
  to 
  the 
  immense 
  accumulation 
  of 
  talus 
  mixed 
  

   with 
  shingly 
  laterite 
  beds. 
  

  

  This 
  boulder-bed 
  is 
  again 
  exposed 
  higher 
  up 
  the 
  same 
  nullah, 
  a 
  

   little 
  above 
  its 
  entrance 
  into 
  the 
  Mullyreddypolliam 
  tank, 
  and 
  6 
  to 
  7 
  feet 
  

   of 
  the 
  bed 
  clearly 
  shown. 
  Many 
  specimens 
  of 
  shingle 
  of 
  pistacite 
  rock 
  

   were 
  here 
  noticed, 
  all 
  extremely 
  decomposed 
  and 
  crumbling.
