LEBANON. G 5 . 169 



Lower sandstone is seen at 1475' A. T., quite massive, and 

 it makes a great cliff around the hills. 



About two miles north from where the Newburg turnpike 

 crosses the East Branch of the Dyeberry, the Honesdale 

 Lower sandstone is seen ; its base 1495' above tide. Between 

 Big Hickory and Little Hickory knobs, a great gap has been 

 cut, from the northern edge of which the drainage goes north- 

 ward into Equinunk creek. The evidence of glacial action 

 is everywhere visible along this gap in huge piles of mo- 

 rainic debris, and in the scratched and polished surface of 

 the outcropping rocks ; general direction of striae S. 5° to 

 10° W. magnetic. 



Near H. Kesler's, on the Newburg turnpike, some massive 

 sandstones appear along the road, and their exposed upper 

 surfaces are scored with glacial markings in long parallel 

 striae going S. 5° W., elevation 1635' A. T. 



At this same locality we also see the outcrop of a black 

 calcareous conglomerate at 1640' A. T. and it may possibly 

 represent the Cherry Ridge limestone, since it has a thick- 

 ness of 5 feet. 



Near the northern line of the township, and just west from 

 the. Upper Woods Pond, a whitish sandstone is seen cover- 

 ing the surface with immense bowlders many of them being 

 larger than a good sized house. The base of the stratum 

 appears to come about 1575' A. T. and is therefore most 

 probably one of the Honesdale group.
