"deemed a poor quantity of Walden crinoids
and few shells.
The def is to the west and south-west. In
the quarries the beds dip at a "20° grade".
The Walden fauna is as prolific here as in Indiana
and so far as the brachiopods are concerned there
appears to be no local species. The only absent form is
Rhynchotreta americana. Among the crinoids there are
several local (?) forms (Eucalycocrinites) and a
? Cayracrinus quite different from anatus. None of
the crinoids are complete all have been broken before
centrifuged. Many of large calices lie with the broad
tympans side downward on the basal symin some
a few miles away. Many of brachiopods are separated
shelves. The hybrea are less common here than in
Indiana and this is especially true for the Trematis
jones.
August 3 Saturday. Dawson Tenn.
Took the 7 a.m. train at Dawson. I looked at
the abandoned quarry near the station but seemed
for less than Zacheus Walden any point. Reds worked
the Fuller quarry but came some it in and stopped
all around. Returned at 1:32 P.M. and loaded
three boxes. The later Batu will ship by
