stretch of coast, where the conditions were unfavorable for 

 cliff and terrace development, because of ragged ledges of 

 slate in the first two instances, and of delta deposits at the 

 mouth of the Saint Thomas River in the third case. Every- 

 where else the low terrace and cliff were very prominent. 

 Further evidence of the extent of the terrace was found, after 

 returning from the field, in the Admiralty charts of the Lower

 recently been published.* 



* Of the older charts, published in London, by the Admiralty, the most 

 helpful are No. 307, which was published in 1901, and Nos. 313, 314, and 

 315, in 1890. Of the later charts, prepared by the Department of the Naval 

 Service of Canada, at Ottawa, No. 202, of the coast from Razade Islands to 

 White Island, published in 1910, and No. 201, of the coast from White Island 

 to Orignaux Point, published in 1908, are very rich in detail. Other charts 

 are now in preparation.
