"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
