Hydrate, Plectanmite sericeus, Refrisquina,
cliffs of [illegible] and an abundance of
Bryozoa. Also Oithos tricenaria.
Apparently as one goes east along the Missouri
Pacific one gets lower and lower in the section.
yesterday at Eureka saw a sandstone quarry
for glass sand. This must be the Saint Peter.
Opposite Sherman are cliffs of Kimmeridgian
that the Desanice Cement Co use.
Therefore the dip is away from Ogallala,
in this case east. The Desanice census must
lie east of Rally Park.
Beyond Sherman one sees a milky-
white leary tidded limestone with Ruth-straphis
reminiding of the Elmo River at first Bridge, Iy.
Sherman is 24 miles out of St Louis.
