Kaoln is often, though not always.
formed from decomposing fellspar ant
is one Of those alterations in the rock,
and mineral formations that often take
place along those lines Of physical dis
turbancc referred to in my last
| Those beds Of kaoliu that we find
resting on the surface orthe rock. such
as are found near Grand Rapids, al
though beneath the soil, are formed
evidently from the decomposition o.
the fellspar of tht Granite rocks under
the action Of water, Th9 water may
be in its ordinary condition, but held
in depressions on the surface; or il
may contain some peculiar solvent OBJ
tainel from the decomposition OF some
other portion Of the rock; or it may
be water reaching the rock through
springs, with more chan ordinary dis
solving powers. But this change takes
place always in the presence of water,
