W. Gibson, in Susquehanna county. 



This lies directly east from Harford having Jackson on 

 its northern boundary and Clifford on its southern. 



The drainage is all southern by way of Tunkhannock 

 creek and its many branches. 



From the valley of the Tunkhannock creek eastward the 

 surface rises quite rapidly, attaining at the eastern line of 

 the township an elevation of 1800' to 1900 7 A. T. while to- 

 ward the southern border it becomes quite mountainous. 



The rocks of the township belong entirely to the Catskill 

 system, though in some places the Tunkhannock trenches 

 nearly to the top of the Chemung. It is quite possible that 

 at the north-eastern corner of the township this stream cuts 

 a little below the base of the CatsMll ; but the hill slopes 

 are covered with Drift and no rock exposures are to be seen. 



At the forks of road near L. W. Scott's, northwest from 

 Gibson, we see a massive cliff rock jutting out of the hill at 

 1300' A. T. It belongs to the top of the New Milford group. 



On the opposite or eastern side of Gibson village the same 

 rock is seen in a long range of cliffs from which many huge 

 bowlders have broken away, and now line the hill slopes 

 and valley below. 



In descending along the Herrick Center road to Gibson 

 we get the following succession : 



Gibson section. 



1. Sandstone, massive, grayish white, 30' 



2. Concealed, 35'
