[see doc. 90] Grand Mere, Thursday Aug 15-1929 [D9607] Collected all morning in a little quarry beside the road side after hundred feet east of the bare homes. It is in division 2 of Charles Grand Mere formation. Got a lot of things but all is fragmentary. As usual Coprinus for most of the fossils. [D9518] In the afternoon collected in Oltell Brook and in the arable lands to the east, in the upper ls of Charles division n°1. It is the regular Ordinary (Upper) fauna though hard to collect because of the thick reddish nature of the limestones. Saw one Eatonina eminens and all the species are as large as in N.Y. Arsenals in this limestone. If more oil lay upon the ls there would be more silicification, but the soil or is not stay moldses dipping 30 degrees or more. The strata dips north into Boston Bay but as one turns Oltell Brook. Another day I fog for till or three except today until in the afternoon.
