Grand Falls — Alt. 507 ft. (154-5 m.). About 

 I mile (i • 6 km.) above Grand Falls the Canadian 

 Pacific railway crosses the river to the eastern 

 side along which it runs to Edmundston. The 

 country bordering the St. John is hilly though 

 few of the hills are of any considerable elevation. 

 Approaching Edmundston the country begins 

 to be rugged. Very few rock exposures occur 

 along the river and these in most cases are dark 

 slates. At one locality a few fossils have been 

 found of about Niagara age, but the strata in 

 general have been considered to be late Silurian 

 or early Devonian. 



Edmundston — Alt. 468 ft. (142 • 6 m.) . From 

 Edmundston, the Temiscouata railway runs 

 northwestward up the valley of Madawaska
