CUTTYHUNK ISLAND 

 BY F. P. GULLIVER 



[Abstract] 



Cuttyhunk island had an initial form of irregularly heaped mounds and kettles 

 characteristic of a terminal moraine. The last movement of the land left several 

 islands, which have since been tied together to form one continuous land-mass. 

 The tombolo at the western end of Cuttyhunk pond is a type example of this class 

 of coastal forms showing early nip now grassed over, cliffs, pebble beach, and a 

 protected harbor now filling up.

 president's house, from 8 to 10 o'clock p m. 



The following resolution was offered by Professor B. K. Emerson, and, 

 after remarks by Professor A. P. Coleman, was unanimously adopted :

 ester for the hospitality so kindly extended to the Society ; also special thanks to
