DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME

MY ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECT IS IN A PERIOD OF HIATUS. THAT DOES NOT MEAN I DO THINK ABOUT AND  CARE ABOUT KING SWAMP.

IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO DRILL INTO AND TAKE CORE SAMPLES OF THE BOG. 

THE BOG WAS UNDER WATER, WITH SEA WATER OR LATER WITH FRESH WATER.

AT ONE TIME A SMALL RIVER FLOWED THROUGH THE BOG WHICH HAS BY NOW BEEN FILLED TO FIFTY FEET ABOVE THE FORMER RIVER BOTTOM WITH LEAF MOLD AND PEAT. 

LINDON DUG AN EIGHTEEN FOOT DEEP HOLE AT THE EDGE OF THE BOG. THERE WERE A DOZEN LAYERS OF MARINE PEAT, LEAF MOLD, FRESH WATER PEAT, EARTHQUAKE RELEASED FINE WHITE PARTICULATE MATTER, WITH RIVER ROCK AT THE EIGHTEEN FOOT LEVEL.
