Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Final Report on the Geology and Mineralogy of the State of New Hampshire, 1844
The epigene rocks are all more or less distinctly stratified, and were deposited from water which originally held the particles in suspension or solution. The first deposits contain few, if any, remains of organized beings, either animal or vegetable. If any were originally contained in those rocks, their forms have been obliterated by the agency of heat, originating from the nether rocks.
