Excerpt from Report on the Geological and Agricultural Survey of the State of Rhode-Island: Made Under a Resolve of Legislature in the Year 1839

By following the ascending order, we begin with the lowest rocks known, and ascend to those which rest upon them.

This method is not only more Simple, and clear, but is, in fact, the order which all students of Geology follow in learning the nature and relative situation of rocks. It is the true natural order, not only on this account, but also because it is the actual order in which the rocks themselves were formed.
