In our archipelago, I believe that fossiliferous formations could be formed of sufficient thickness 1859 |
I believe that fossiliferous formations could be formed in the archipelago, of thickness sufficient 1860 |
As the common rule formations rich in fossils would be formed in the archipelago, of thickness sufficient 1861 |

America; even throughout the extensive and shallow seas within the archipelago sedimentary beds could not, during the periods of elevation, be accumulated of great thickness, or become capped and protected by subsequent deposits, so as to have a good chance of enduring to an extremely distant future. 1861 1866 |
