Excerpt from Second Annual Report on the Geology of the Public Lands: Belonging to the Two States of Maine and Massachusetts IN order to form a comprehensive idea of the Geological Structure of the Public Lands in Maine, it is necessary to con sider some of the results to which we have arrived, in exam ining other portions of the State, so far as to determine the relative positions and ages of the various great rock formations, which present themselves to view, while we apply the general principles of geological science to their elucidation. In making our explorations of the State, we have endeavored to record with strict accuracy, every observation which we were able to make while on the spot where the phenomena pre sented themselves, and specimens of all the rocks have been collected by us, and were invariably labelled immediately after they were obtained, so that they are faithful indications of the true geology of the country.
