Coming through O'Brian Bks the Carmuchee chart along side Thurman once to see on the north side of Lavender But. On the south side known clayfoot is sharp. Here the beds did strike nearly E-8, 25° South The distance is 33 yards for the top of the Carmuchee to the top of the Pockwood. The red shale is about 18 miles. Then follow below red shales with sandstone of about 7 feet followed a bed by the gulfworth shale and some harder beds of the Pockwood. Probably so far from the Grand Amphitheater, then The entire Carmuchee is a series of thinly bedded shales separated by a little shale most abundant in the lower third. The entire series breaks into a redish- yellow color. Towards the top, clay is fat, the beds are more dark, layers of orange evenly bedded and consist of thin sandstone. The fossils in these upper beds. Then follows a very acid earth usually seen in connection with the Fort Payne chert. Twenty yards farther and the chert is at hand but I saw no fossils in it. Nothing of the Chattanooga formation is seen here. A few yards more and the Floyd shales of great thickness continues for by distance.
