The possible transportation of the fragments in this bed by some form of ice action was implied, but beyond the size of the boulders found in it, no direct evidence of glacial agencies had been discovered until April of this year. As the glacial origin of the deposit and its geological position have an important bearing on the extension of . . . This content is PDF only. Please click on the PDF icon to access.
