In the [illegible] quarry we sees about 12 foot [illegible] [illegible] (but on agillaceous limestone) of dark colored brittle materials. With thin white lines from 4 to 14 inches and without fossils. There is good Dun- nealling here. Lamination not distinct. On the edge of the [illegible] quarry we sees 6 foot of lamin beds much like those of the lower part of the quarry and that weather down into shale. Laminian. These are probably in the Round rock cement horizon. Below these there are 14 feet 6" to the Bragman Shales (= Dalina) They are not the Bragman shales (= Dalina) and the so-called Runnwater sandstone or Hudson Ruin? See Hartmayers photo of the Bragman- Creskill contact at Harris Cave. The forms are distinctly truncated. It is this that leads me to think the Bragman's is Hudson Ruin.
