limestone cnyl (pieces all angular = intrusive mud). At
least 30 yards of it. One mile from here..
along the E. side again.
Seven miles N.W. of Payson we saw this same serie
again and in the red iron bedded sandstone separated
replete with fint lime breccia, fint all are derived from
the Bothriolepis. Hayden in the limatone Stigmaria
first found a bed about one foot thick having an abundance
of Bothriolepis whitogii animosaensis, Clithea orbicularis
Schuelutella (a thick fellow), Ariculipeten, Angalina.
A little farther (I think 3 miles) N.W. we saw shale
lignite beds to a foot
along the road. It's a shale and only impure lime rock than
lode. How thick this serie is no dr not know. It is capped
by a fine foot bed of white dense lie that has a lot of
small hachifords that weather out silicious. The common
foal is Stigmaria verrucosus (has 1 plication in series at about 3th
from coal side, and is verrucose), Ps. Whitogii, Clithea
reticularis, Canaristrechia, Schuelutella late peeta.
Ten feet higher in another lie one to two feet thick
that has lots of Pachyphyllen morrowanai (there 3
specimens), and Chalypsona.
There is just a tiny 10 foot mae of Devonian.
Than back in Mississippian lie. Near the base
there in Chisidomella bicemii, Stigmaria not centimatus
since it is sharper-flicate and has some plicationis.
