STATIONS FOR 1872, WITH HEADQUARTERS AT EASTPORT, ME. 



The dredgings for 1872 were mostly carried on fi:om a large sail-boat; 

 Ijut tliose in tlie deeper waters of the Bay of Fundy were made from the 

 ClDited {States revenue- cutter Mosswood, Captain Hodgdon. The regions 

 explored were about as follows : Eastport Harbor, South Bay, and Pas- 

 samaquoddy Bay, all of which are comparatively shallow- water areas 5 

 the shallow waters about the island of Grand Menan, especially those 

 among the small islands to the east of Grand Menan; and the deeper 

 waters east of Oampobello Island, west of Grand Menan; and toward the 

 center of the Bay of Fundy, between Grand Menan and Nova Scotia. 



In connection with the shallow- water dredgings no complete record of 

 observations was kept, but the collections made were appropriately 

 labeled with the precise locality, depth of water, nature of bottom, &c. 

 The more important hauls in deep water, mostly accompanied by tem- 

 peratui-e observations, are as follows, the letters used to designate them 

 being the same as were employed in the original records :
