Shelly gne at south end of cut about 32 yards across, dip at one side being vertical at the other about 50 degrees. Lower Orielay. At south end of section thalff about [illegible] 285 foot high above South Branch. Of this about 260 can be seen. Down the separation of the cliff Lower Orislay in the upper Orielay is merged. Fully 70 feet of L. C. can be seen. This then would make the Upper Orielay 185 foot thick and all of the Orielay about 260 foot thick. What can not be seen is interpreted to be the shog Veludby above the Muerdfum bed. At the south end of section girth behind the Parson house [hotel] may be seen 20 feet more of the roof hidden coarse Upper Orielay or that all the Orielay here overcomes 280 feet. It may even be thicker.
