  It 
  follows 
  from 
  this 
  descrip- 
  

   tion 
  of 
  this 
  group 
  of 
  inliers 
  that 
  we 
  can 
  expect 
  to 
  find 
  them 
  only 
  

   where 
  they 
  follow 
  the 
  dip 
  of

  i.

  in 
  New

  in 
  

   general 
  in 
  north-south 
  flowing 
  rivers. 
  Among 
  these 
  there 
  occur 
  

   some 
  very 
  interesting 
  examples 
  of 
  erosion 
  inliers, 
  and 
  more 
  will 
  

   undoubtedly 
  become 
  known 
  as 
  accurate 
  and 
  detailed 
  mapping

  Taking 
  this 
  explanation 
  of 
  this 
  inlier 
  as 
  granted, 
  and 
  also 
  the 
  post- 
  

   glacial 
  age 
  of 
  the 
  brook, 
  then 
  it 
  follows 
  that 
  since 
  the 
  lake 
  water 
  is 
  now 
  

   backing 
  up 
  into 
  the 
  inlier, 
  the 
  lake 
  must 
  have 
  been 
  rising 
  relatively 
  to 
  the 
  

   land 
  since 
  the 
  formation 
  of 
  the 
  inlier.
