West of the main road near the southwest corner of the cross-

Fig. s Sketch of two small postglacial faults, overlapping and dying out; a, a, a ragged 

 joint transverse to the structure 



pains being taken to determine that the rocks and the fractures 

 did not overlap into continuity w r ith those in the first set. There 

 is a covered space in the main road between the two sections so 

 that precise measurements of faults which might exist in this 

 interval were not attainable; but the zero point of table 2 is so 

 close to the strike of the western end of the section in table 1 

 that few faults can intervene between the two tables.
