August 18, 1953 Saturday
Brandon, IT.
Collected in the metamorphosed limestone
just southwest of Brandon. Raymond pointed out
to me the section of a large Macilnea about
four inches across that he feels is the same as
a common one at Tiendroga, N.Y. He
also showed me a large cephalopod, Protogy
Othricuas n Camerones. At the oral end
it was 1/2 inch wide and at the large end
2 1/2 inches. In the space of six inches it had
about 8 septa each about 1/4 to 3/8 inch apart.
Bradyodontum lay. Saw no other cle.
These two points with those just before show
this material to be Beeldmantown.
Then drove to locality (7) to see the
laminated limestone. These limestones reminded
Raymond of the "ribbon limestones" of Raceland
and Leeles Beeldmantown.
The shell fauna may well be
the Phillipsburg fauna in the lower
carbonate the Beeldmantown.
