Here as at the joggins in the Coal Hole
associated with the crals or beds approaching
crals we get a abundance of Maidacite
and Lepidoditra. It seems the Hecton and
smoother the shale the more abundant
the livalres. Here the shale is as thin
as tissue paper. In these beds I saw
no evidence for marine stratus or
good as that of this morning in the
lower Pennsylvanian - Point Edward forma-
tion.
Along the North Sydney line near the
Nova Scotia Steel Company one sees several
erect trees. One large Lepidodendron about three
feet through was the best and it stood on a
coral bed. Calamites are more common
stand erect and nearly always we found by a
coral seam.
